Hi,
I've been using Conky for some time, a nifty utility to monitor just about anything on the PC. Vital things like CPU, RAM, swap, disks, current song playing in MPD :o)
Here's what it looks like :

Now I wonder... I'd really like to use that to monitor my remote server. I know this feature isn't officially supported by Conky, but I'm right now thinking about a workaround. Something like: OK, my server is 'headless' (e. g.: no graphical server, nothing), but why not install just xorg-x11-server-Xorg, then use Conky and forward it to my local display with SSH -X ? I'm pondering this question, thinking about the possible issues...
... so maybe one of you guys here has come up with some solution ?
Cheers,
Niki
