System Monitor applet?

[vincegata]

Hi,

I am looking for a system monitor applet for Cinnamon, I do not see it in panel add-ons. Could someone recommend where can I get one if it exists. I am on Ubuntu 12.10 Cinnamon 1.6.3 (I think).

Thanks.

Thank you.

I cannot get any of the applets to run properly that are found there.

Graphical Hardware Monitor
System Monitor

When I attempt to make them run, the Update Manager, Battery and Tomboy (and other applets) flash briefly, as if the applet I have chosen to appear attempts to share the same space.

I've seen word that other people are having problems, but I've not seen a solution?

I want a task manager to check what is running high cpu/ram and kill specific apps. I have Task Killer applet running, but it's shooting in the dark when my desktop seizes up.

I agree, it is all buggy.

I like Multi-Core System Monitor which ran on Ubuntu 12.10, now I went to 12.04 and the applet does not work here.

5 years after and there are still no good applets for CPU and network monitoring in Cinnamon...

Best I have found is the Mate System Monitor. Just apt-get mate-system-monitor and then search for the launcher, mine was in /usr/share/app-install/desktop I just created a launcher in the xfce panel for it. The monitor is very similar to the old monitor in Ubuntu prior to 12.04 and beats many of the monitors that come 'stock'.
