Lite System Monitor - Conky

Kita tentu pernah menggunakan System Monitor standar bawaan ubuntu, tapi sebenarnya  banyak aplikasi lain yang bisa kita gunakan sebagai sistem monitor pada ubuntu kita.

Disini kita akan coba untuk menginstall dan menggunakan conky. Sebuah aplikasi mini yang mampu memonitor system, cpu temperatur,  informasi bateray, koneksi wifi, informasi RAM dan sebagainya langsung tampil di wallpaper desktop.

conky - System Monitor

Salah satu hal yang baik adalah resources yang digunakannya minimal, sehingga tidak terlalu membebabi resources system.

Cara installnya, dari terminal ketikkan :

sudo apt-get install conky

atau gunakan link ini untuk menginstallnya langsung.

Kita bisa melakukan konfigurasi manual conky dengan mengedit file ~/.conkyrc. Misal ketikkan gedit ~/.conkyrc. Hal itu akan membuat sebuah file .conkyrc di home direktory kita. Kemudian copy paste kan kode beikut kedalam editor file .conkyrc. Kemudian simpan dan keluar.
