Not sure abuot plasmoids/widgets for KDE 4  (KDE 4.3.1 in openSUSE
11.1 - since I use the panels mostly for shortcuts to Text Editor,
Konsole, Dolphin, etc),  but if you want a display of system info that
is also highly configurable, 'Conky' is a lightweight system info
utility with lots of options:
