Thanks for the reply. Yes, conky seems to gain the most reputation.
Could I have your whole conky configuration for your setting?
Here's my .conkyrc in case you want to try it:
alignment top_right

Hi,
I've been using xnetload since I started to use Linux, almost 10 years
ago. Now that it is obsolete, what are other recommended alternatives?
thanks
Conky and GKrellM both do a nice job. I personally use a Conky
configuration where I have what works to this effect:
${if_up eth0}
eth0: up, addr $alignr ${addr eth0}
Up ${alignr} Down
${upspeed eth0}${alignr}${downspeed eth0}
${upspeedgraph, 20,100 eth0}${alignr}${downspeedgraph 20,100 eth0}
${else}
eth0: down
${endif}
See http://i.imgur.com/u3bKA.png for a recent screenshot of my desktop,
conky living in the upper right hand corner.
GKRellM is a bit different, and has a much more graphical look to it.

Because it breaks the logical flow of conversation, plus makes
