Description Harold Schreckengost 2011-09-07 19:18:14 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

The icon for the Memory Status widget is misleading; the icon appears to be some sort of flash memory stick, while the widget measures RAM.  Completely different things.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
It's just there.


Expected Results:  
A stick of RAM would make a good icon.

Use the more-RAM icon for sm_ram. Use view-stats for sm_temp applets.

The RAM one used a media-flash-sd card thing. Which is less fitting than
media-flash is, yet it was used for temp instead.
