'ey thanks! You know, as much playing with kde as I do--- and I missed
that
one... very nice. I notice that right clicking on the colored bars gives me
a configuration menu--- and hovering over the panel applet with the mouse
also provides a real-time text update as well. heh.. I just pegged the cpu
bars by grabbing the top of my mail editor and moving it around the screen a
bit... isn't it just amazing that most of the time linux just sits there
idle waiting to be almost 100% useful? Its got it all... fabulous resource
management... and its fun too. I'm tempted to launch into a joyful
hyperbole, but I spare y'all...
