Hi Ranjan,

Have you tried conky? Its pretty cool and customisable. I know it
probably doesn't fit into the discussion about a spin's default resource
monitor applet, but for personal use its too good.

Here is my setup with WindowMaker. If you request I can share my
~/.conkyrc too. ;)

Thanks for the information on conky. It seems similar to gkrellm,
perhaps without the bloat (hopefully). I wonder if it should be
included in the LXDE spin because it has many features missing in the
lxpanel (at least while new features are being introduced).

I would love to see your .conkyrc if possible.

Everything that you see in my conky setup comes with a default install
of conky, except for the weather forecast. For that you have to
download a script and a font set from the ubuntu forums. The
maintainer is relatively active and keeps updating regularly.

To make this work you need to register with some weather service. I
have a free registration with weather.com

I prefer my conky display translucent and on the top right. The
configs are pretty easy to understand.

Some docs:
+ for the colour codes refer to <file:///usr/share/X11/rgb.txt>
+ for time formats `man strftime'
+ for conky feature set refer <http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html>

Feel free to contact me if you have any other queries, enjoy fiddling
around. ;)

Best wishes,
Ranjan
