I agree with you, but I premised that they are different aka they are not a 
full replacement. 
Probably the next applets will be more complex and sport more features. It's a 
matter of fact that 
KDE4 is not feature complete and as mature as it is KDE3.5, but this is going 
to change for good in 
the next months. Until then you must live with some missing features, small 
problems, etc. When you 
really miss something you can install/pin kde3.5 from stable.

Apart from one thing -- knetload & kcpuload when clicked on, produced a
text window with the actual data rate or  cpu usage. The plasma widgets
I've tried don't do that and since the network one autoscales it's hard
to use for more than "is anything happening or not". 

Also; to put widgets in the panel, right-click on the panel, and follow
the menus. On the desktop, again a right click and menu is an
alternative.

Hi,

There are a lot of plasma applets to do the same stuff. They have a different 
layout but they 
provide the same information. Use the cashew to add them to your desktop.

About knetload and kcpuload

2009-03-04 Thread Patrice Pillot
Hi,

Those two apps were recently removed from testing since they were not
present anymore in sid.

I suppose this may be related to the fact that they don't seem to be
maintain well upstream and moreover, since KDE4 is on its way to squeeze...

Yet those applets are very useful. Are there any KDE4 successors for them ?

TIA,

phep
