conky

I just set up conky on my Hardy machine, its as simple as can be, a quick “sudo apt-get install conky” did it for me.

The cool thing about it is that you specify exactly how it works, by creating and editing a file in your home directory called .conkyrc , this file is a little hard to understand so you’re better to (like I did) use a pre configured file, I’ll post mine here, along with a screenshot. It makes your desktop look seriously l33t!
