Is this "sleep" related?

This needs a fix/workaround. It happens that the server status is recognized as off even when it should be on. The command for checking is

Code:

ps aux | grep -c usr/sbin/sshd

which i think can be assumed to be reliable.

Anyway, when "Stop tracking status when off" is enabled (you do have it enabled?) the widget immediately stops tracking as soon as status OFF is recognized. To handle those occasional short intervals correctly, when the sshd daemon seems non-listed in the process list, a time-out needs to be added before tracking stops.
