Re: How to install torsmo?

if you read the bottom of THIS PAGE, you will notice in the "Known Problems" area that it doesn't work with gnome and has been said that it doesn't work for KDE.

I know what you want, and what you are trying to do, so I have 2 suggestions for you:

• SuperKaramba
• Conky

You can install superkaramba by:

# sudo apt-get install superkaramba

You can install conky by:

# sudo apt-get install conky

There are many different styles/templates/skins out there for both. Superkaramba is graphically better, where as conky is very minimal, but also has a blinking/refresh rate issue that can be annoying to some as it does't occur to everyone.

Good luck, and enjoy!!!

I have installed conky with Adept and I don't know where to find it.
Superkaramba uses too much resources for me.
