I have dsl on a computer that is not hooked up to the internet. I don't need the net in/out graph(above the cpu usage graph). Is there anyway to make it go away? It takes up too much room on my 800x600px desktop. Thanks in advance.

You can edit your /usr/bin/enhance file, and comment out the wmnet app lines.Or try opening a shell, and running the command
killall wmnet

That command works, but is there anyway to keep it like that, even on reboot? How would I edit the enhance file, emelfm doesnt give me an option to view or edit the file.

If you are running DSL without a writeable /usr/bin, such as a LiveCD without any *.dsl extensions installed, you can edit /home/dsl/.xinitrc:Remove the line(s) including 'enhance' (I think it's inside an 'if', so you can remove the 'if' and 'fi' lines as well).
If you want to keep some of the other dockapps, such as mount.app, look at /usr/bin/enhance in a text editor. The applications will be listed there. You can put those apps into /home/dsl/.xinitrc like so:
mount.app &
wmix &

I can open it, but it is read only. I have a Hard Drive install, by the way.

Then you need to edit the /usr/bin/enhance file as root user..You could also add the line 'killall wmnet &' to your .xinitrc file ABOVE the fluxbox line.

What method did you use to install? If you used frugal it's essentially the same as running a liveCD from your harddrive, and all the bin directories will be read-only.| Quote |

That's something that never crossed my mind. good one.

Thanks, I edited the enhance file and commented out(#) the lines that load mount.app and wmnet.

I made a correction to my command...
Note the ampersand for running in background,
so as not to kill an open shell when it is running.
I also corrected my spelling wmnet, not wnmet
I use the same method for killing my wmcpuload monitor,
In .xinitrc, I use ' killall wmcpuload '
then right below that I add 2 new lines for each of my cpu's..
wmcpuload -c 0 &
wmcpuload -c 1 &
Then I get two cpuload monitors in my slit..
It's nice when using grip to see one handling the rip,
and one handling the compression/convert to ogg/mp3..
I've enjoyed our recent threads and discussions ... good work.

I don't quite understand how that works, but it sounds like you can specify certain apps using a particular processor? That's sweet.
