Package: icewm
Version: 1.3.7-1

In the panel/taskbar/system tray is a small applet displaying the CPU load. If 
you hover the mouse over it, you get a tooltip window displaying various 
information textually:

1. CPU Load: 0.58 0.97 1.04, 270
I can recognize the first three and know where to look up their meaning 
(Though I really doubt Joe "average" User can!), but the last value is a 
mystery to me.

2. Ram: 1007.03/80.86M
Firstly, it should probably be RAM, not Ram. Secondly, I guess it should be 
80.86/1007.03M instead, i.e. the free RAM. Or maybe it should be 
926.17/1007.03M, which is the used RAM just as the CPU and swap usage display. 
As optional feature, I would display the usage in either percent, like the CPU 
load and/or in MiB instead of MB, in order to avoid fractional values.

3. Swap: 1953.15/1868.25M
Again, I would swap these two values like with the RAM above or even make this 
a percentage.

4. ACPI Temp:
I'm on a PowerPC system, but ACPI is a x86-ism, AFAIK. Hence also no 
temperature here, but I'd rather say the whole entry should be removed when no 
temperature is available.

5. CPU Freq: 0.000GHz
This value is simply wrong, this is also the main issue that prompted me to 
write this bug report, before I actually really looked at the values there and 
started thinking. ;)


Cheers!

Uli
