[lug] IceWM Question

[John Hernandez]

Many GUI meters are capable of distinguishing between three types of 
CPU activity:  user, nice, kernel (system).  These are the same three 
types that 'top' provides.  Each can be displayed in a different color 
on the KDE taskbar meter that I use.

If I had to guess based on the info you've provided, red = kernel, blue 
= nice, green = user.
