IC> IC> Peace, IC> Isaac ========================= For a nice gui tool, try gkrellm. Shows lots of system stats with minimonitors for ppp or eth0, disk activity, process activity, and cpu activity. It also reports disk usage (including floppies, cdrom, and zip disk) uptime, connect time, and other items of interest. You can get loads of different skins for it to match your various themes.
