Thanks Robert, yes I figured out I could just install it under a separate directory as you suggest above.
I would like some further guidance - how do you prefer to be contacted?

This is a nice tool but I wanted to see if I could add a few extra features (inc. for question "160421 Would like disk activity"). I have gotten myself a launchpad account and downloaded (bzr branch lp:gnome- system-monitor) and built the binary however get this: gsw@goat:~/bzr/gnome-system-monitor/src$ ./gnome-system-monitor (gnome-system-monitor:25849): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_get_screen: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed (gnome-system-monitor:25849): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_rgba_visual: assertion `GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed (gnome-system-monitor:25849): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_set_default_size: assertion `GTK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed (gnome-system-monitor:25849): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_move: assertion `GTK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed (gnome-system-monitor:25849): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_add_accel_group: assertion `GTK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed Segmentation fault (core dumped) I'm a complete Gnome n00b so any assistance would be helpful. Hopefully it's just something silly like the way I've built it or trying to run it. $ uname -a Linux goat 3.2.0-29-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:03:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux AMD64 architecture. $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
