That graph could work. The use that I was thinking of was in conjunction with collectd. If the technique used for that graph is available, then I could then transfer this wishlist item to that group. In particular, for a dashboard, I'll typically have many graphs of the same metric for different machines. Having an evaluation scale beside it would make them more reliable in the sense of accidental misinterpretations. - -jeff -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkqxPacACgkQMfiP4rwHDZy1iACbBijb9aip7WfglXQxdPnCktK0 bHEAn0OAjGbDFozhfsFkkDacDYMhWE23 =Pg85 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
