CrystalMonitor 9 is free open-source SuperKaramba plasmoid. It provides many useful functions - info about your computer configuration.
Last but not least it's translated to 7 languages (see nastavitveniK bellow) and thanks to SuperKaramba great structure it's fully skinable and partially configurable with the utility nastavitveniK.
If you want to support developing of this program, you can translate it (for manuals contact me) or make donation via PayPal instead (see donate button bellow).
For installation manuals take a look at Knowledge Base tab.
Some TO-DOs:
*update Debian, Ubuntu and openSuSE (+ Mandriva, Fedora) packages
*publish cm2deb, cm2rpm scripts

Could not locate the sk_cm901x package required for the CrystalMonitor
I'm currently running KDE4.3, is this the problem, or is there something else wrong?

Currently I'm looking for new translations. Serbo-Croatian is already on the way. English, French (thanks to: Adrien Futschi), German, Italian (thanks to: Arnaud Yviquel), Polish (thanks to: Ines Zgonc), Slovene and Spanish (thanks to: Diego Agulló Falcó) translations still exist, but they need some updates. If you are interested in translating CrystalMonitor, you can contact me via my profile.

I got old fashion Celeron 2.8 Ghz on Asus P4PE motherboard.
Currently CM9 displays always 1.C on CPU Temp field.
I've tried to do some testing in terminal:
sensors | grep Core0| cut -f2 -d+ | cut -c -6
display nothing
sensors | grep "CPU Temp"
display
CPU Temp (Intel): +44.0°C (high = +100.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)
CPU Temp (AMD): +25.0°C (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +75.0°C)
When I modify command to
sensors | grep "CPU Temp (Intel)"| cut -f2 -d+ | cut -c -7
I got
43.0°C
I've tried to modify the whole crystal.theme according to instructions on previous comments, but when I do that, CPU Temp is blank :-(
Modified Command on crystal.theme is
sensors | grep "CPU Temp (Intel)"| cut -f2 -d+ | cut -c -3| sed 's/.$/°C,/g' | sed -e :a -e '$!N;s/\n/ /;ta' -e 'P;D' | sed -e 's/,$//'
When I type it in terminal, it displays 47°C , but CM9 not.
What am I doing wrong?

Basicly I know where the problem is:
SuperKaramba allows only one program to be excluded, so you have to pack more commands in one big one-line command.
I'll send you version for your processor.

your monitor looks really cool as it has "all you need". The only problem I have found is that there was no CPU temperature shown. When I type 'sensors' in a console, I get this:
...
M/B Temp: +30.0°C (low = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C) sensor = transistor
CPU Temp: +39.0°C (low = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C) sensor = transistor
...
By the way, would it be much if I ask you for adding mother board temp?
Regards! :-)

It is very easy to configure theme.
Rename cm811.skz to cm811.zip and extract it into new folder.
Open Kwrite and press F11 key to show line numbers - jump to line 58. Change value to "Motherboard temperature" or something like that.
Now go to line 59 and replace "Core0" with "M/B" without quotes of course.
Edit maindata.xml in kwrite and change name from CM 8.1.1 to something other...
Go to the folder where files are extracted and do this:
- press F4 (in Dolphin to show terminal emulator)
- type: "zip -r * cm811mb.skz && exit" and press enter
This is all! Now install package as normal.

I have done what said and it's now working great and the way I like it.
Besides, I think you could do your monitor more functional by doing next:
Replace your code:
sensors | grep Core0
for
sensors | grep "Core0\|CPU"
You could even consider using next for insensitive case filtering:
sensors | grep -i "core0\|cpu"
I hope it helps! :-)

I can still prepare package only for you or better include it to crystal9+ package.

You can check it here:

If you like it you can add link to download it.
If you want to cantact with me:
Skype: lodaka1
I guess the best way is to add it as a theme in the main Crystal Monitor.
Cheers.

The circle is just a very small empty plasmoid. Try resizing it.
Also there is no configuration button on it.

Problem is probably in the wrong install places (maybe SuperKaramba powered plasmoids are only for one user mode). Maybe one of plasma geeks can resolve this in a minute :-).
