Plasma System Monitor provides an interface for monitoring system sensors, process information and other system resources.
It is built on top of the faces system also used to provide widgets for plasma-dekstop and makes use of the ksystemstats daemon to provide sensor information. It allows extensive customisation of pages, so it can be made to show exactly which data people want to see.
This is free and open source software.
