It took couple of seconds to bring up all the stuff on screen, but it didn't flicker otherwise. I can't tell if double buffering is working or not, but it does not have any ugly flickering at least. Update rate for information seems to be once per every 2,5 seconds (approx) and screen draws without any aftifacts between refreshes.

I didn't have to swipe away. I also tested multiple restarts to see whether the results vary. Looks good to me.

Wow thanks for the effort, this is great.
RscMonitor has a nice UI and all but having used conky so much on my old N900 nothing was going to match what I was used to, until this port came along of course.

I'd say next step's gotta be making a deb package that installs conky with the dependencies via file manager, but then again RscMonitor is better suited for the nubs that need that anyway.

Thanks again Creamy Goodness!

Greatttt Thank you . Old good time is returning !!

Would be nice to see this in apps.formeego.org

Do you have plans for that?

I'll take a look tomorrow. I'm not really sure how that site works, I didn't look at it in a few months!

Btw, I apologize in advance for making the power saving stuff dependent on another app. It probably looks bad that I wrote it too, like I'm trying to force you guys to use that too. But I really didn't know what to do. Heartbeat timer is only available to c++ / qt apps and there doesn't seem to be any way to create one from the dbus. I spent many hours trying to find the best way to do this. It's the best I can do for now. Let me know if it doesn't work like it should, I barely tested it.

So, Creamy Goodness, does that mean you're abandoning us N900-ers and the N900's Conky package?

haha, well, not really. Most of the changes I did so far were just to get this thing working as good as it does on the n900. And it still doesn't because we can't see the battery temperature or i/o stats per process. I'm not really sure if aligning the updates to the heartbeat timer will help battery life a lot. I can probably patch the n900 version to at least slow down the updates when the screen is off though.

Maybe you are already aware of these discussions but I post the link in any case:
