Let me try this in Standard English. The Requested Feature Enhancement is for an applet which shows the _data throughput_ of the Network Interface Card. SPECIFICALLY: something which shows so many kilobytes *uploading* and so many kilobytes *downloading*.
The system monitor shows what processes are running and the amount of *CPU* usage. It DOES NOT show the data throughout of the Internet or network connections.
Sorry if I didn't explain myself _clearly enough_.

It does, though, show % usage of the NETWORK. It is MORE than just for CPU usage. It covers % usage of network as well as swap and memory.

but it doesn´t show the usage of the single interfaces.
eth0, eth1 = 1 networkmonitor
there was an applet where you could choose and monitor the different interfaces
but i can´t remeber, was it on redhat6.x, suse 7.1, debian, ... gnome1.x, kde2.x, enlightenment, ...

At least one was rp3, which I wrote the system part of and jrb wrote most of the gui part of. It didn't survive the transition to gnome2, much to my dismay.
The system parts of it are still relevant, and porting the GUI part shouldn't be too hard for someone who knows gnome2. The whole "configuring PPP" part of it can be thrown away; it is a completely separate program from the network monitor.
Any takers?

See the latest comment HERE: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85013 It seems that someone (mike@netlyncs.com) *finally* understands what I am requesting, and it's *not* gkrellm.
BTW, gkrellm cannot be swallowed into the panel as an applet, can it?
