conky: Top Processes and Memory Usage

Another part of the conkyatlogin script is displaying top processes and top memory usage. You should have probably read my previous article on building an rpm with nvidia and images support and the article about loading conky at GNOME startup.

Create the script which is called from the conkyatlogin launcher.

touch ~/bin/conky/host.conky
chmod a+x ~/bin/conky/host.conky
gedit ~/bin/conky/host.conky

Copy and paste (watch for changing the path /home/USER/PATH-TO-LOGO/):
