type conky in a shell
"SideBar"...
I remember that on BT3 there is a theme (?) that shows the cpu load,ethernet load,and many other things...is there a way to have it on BT4 (and maybe enabled by default on the desktop?).
Couldn't remember how to do that

It's also at the bottom of the backtrack menu in kde.Originally Posted by pureh@te
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
Keep seeing pictures with that thing and ive always wanted to know what it was ... to afraid to ask lol
Anyways does it work with vmware? Because i get this and then it just hangs.

Using backtrack for the first time is like being 10 years old again with the keys to a Ferrari.
Vmware probably will make if freak out.

Yes it works in vmware with no problems at all here
many people (mostly on irc) are asking how do you stop conky when you no longer want it running.
So as it is discussed here I may as well give the solution to that here as well rather than making a thread on it
open a konsole and type
Instructions to start it were given earlier in the threadCode:conky stop
Hahahahahahahahahahaha! I was doing a "ps aux | grep conky" then killing the pid....

You're dumb, I was doing "killall -9 conky"
A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
I can report the same here, works just fine on my vmware server install.
