[Solved] xfce 4.8 - system load vs cpu graph?

Hello there,

I like to have a graphical "load" indication in my panel; but the only thing
I could find with my xfce 4.8 install is the "sysload monitor". Not exactly
what I am looking for.

Some search showed up the xfce4-cpugraph-plugin ... and the screenshots
pretty much reflect much more what I would like to have.

Stupid question: is there a way to use that plugin with xfce 4.8?
And why is there only this "system load" thingy around?

xfce4-cpugraph-plugin works fine with Xfce 4.8 (under Arch Linux for me.)

Panel plugins need to be recompiled against 4.8, so compiled 4.6 plugins won't be loaded in the 4.8 panel.

Stupid question ... so where do i get it from, assuming that I am using xubuntu?

EDIT:

by just doing the right thing!

I downloaded xubuntu 11.04 beta 2 and put it on a USB stick ... and going for "add to panel" ...
the cpu graph applet is available.

Resolved.
