Description of problem: (note the extra d at the end of the daemon process' name) ksysguard is a gui that uses ksysguardd as a backend. ksysguardd itself doesn't have any external dependencies, and doesn't even require kde. (if it does, then that's a bug in ksysguardd) ksysguard can connect to remote computers and monitor them as long as the remote computer has ksysguardd installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all How reproducible: N/A Steps to Reproduce: 1. N/A Actual results: ksysguardd is part of the kdebase package Expected results: ksysguardd is a separate package that kdebase depends on Additional info: If you need changes made to ksysguardd, let me know so that I can make them.
+1 I was about to submit the same RFE. I have a server, hosted far from my home. I would have liked to be able to monitor it using the "remote ssh" feature of ksysguard, on my laptop. ksysguardd does not map any part of KDE. Here is the /proc/$PID/map of ksysguardd on my machine (Fedora-8, kdebase-3.5.9-3.fc8): 00110000-00111000 r-xp 00110000 00:00 0 [vdso] 00489000-0049f000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 2868085 /usr/lib/libsensors.so.3.1.4 0049f000-004bf000 rwxp 00016000 08:07 2868085 /usr/lib/libsensors.so.3.1.4 004bf000-004c0000 rwxp 004bf000 00:00 0 004c2000-004cd000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 2867862 /usr/lib/libsysfs.so.2.0.1 004cd000-004ce000 rwxp 0000a000 08:07 2867862 /usr/lib/libsysfs.so.2.0.1 00bcb000-00be6000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 1228839 /lib/ld-2.7.so 00be6000-00be7000 r-xp 0001a000 08:07 1228839 /lib/ld-2.7.so 00be7000-00be8000 rwxp 0001b000 08:07 1228839 /lib/ld-2.7.so 00bea000-00d3d000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 1232302 /lib/libc-2.7.so 00d3d000-00d3f000 r-xp 00153000 08:07 1232302 /lib/libc-2.7.so 00d3f000-00d40000 rwxp 00155000 08:07 1232302 /lib/libc-2.7.so 00d40000-00d43000 rwxp 00d40000 00:00 0 00d45000-00d6c000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 1232306 /lib/libm-2.7.so 00d6c000-00d6d000 r-xp 00026000 08:07 1232306 /lib/libm-2.7.so 00d6d000-00d6e000 rwxp 00027000 08:07 1232306 /lib/libm-2.7.so 08047000-0805c000 r-xp 00000000 08:07 2703872 /usr/bin/ksysguardd 0805c000-0805d000 rw-p 00015000 08:07 2703872 /usr/bin/ksysguardd 0805d000-08085000 rw-p 0805d000 00:00 0 09325000-09367000 rw-p 09325000 00:00 0 b7f08000-b7f3d000 r--s 00000000 08:07 71022 /var/db/nscd/passwd b7f3d000-b7f3f000 rw-p b7f3d000 00:00 0 b7f68000-b7f69000 rw-p b7f68000 00:00 0 bfb9f000-bfbb4000 rw-p bffea000 00:00 0 [stack] IMO, that tool could be easily separated from the main kdebase(-workspace) package. I can test this setup on Fedora 8, if it is needed.
specfile patches welcome.
Canceling NEEDINFO, we can't really _require_ users to submit specfile patches. :-) But of course it would be nice. ;-)
