hm.. personally I don't think that a plasmoid is the right way for this... an average user isn't interested in the number of process ids left and shouldn't have to add a plasmoid for checking for free space.<br>
I'm not familiar with the internals of KDE but maybe kded is the appropriate place for these checks.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/4/30 Allen Winter <<a href="mailto:winter@kde.org">winter@kde.org</a>>:<br>

</div></div>I offer up an idea I had a long time ago, but probably never talked about...<br>
<br>
A plasmoid that does some basis system monitoring like:<br>
running out of diskspace<br>
running out of processes<br>
someone remotedly logged into the machine<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
sorta like the "check oil", "low on fuel".. lights on your car dashboard.<br>
<br>
