⚙️ Setup Instructions

💡 Works on Windows, Linux, & macOS (GPU + Blur only on Windows)

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/thenabinamallik/Sysmon9.git
cd Sysmon9

2. Create and activate a virtual environment

python -m venv venv

Activate: Windows:

venv\Scripts\activate

macOS/Linux:

source venv/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

❗ If you see ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils',

Install:

Ubuntu/Debian

sudo apt install python3-distutils

🚀 Running the App

python monitor.py

📦 Dependencies

psutil
GPUtil
matplotlib

Install manually if needed:

pip install psutil GPUtil matplotlib

🔧 Optional (GPU/Fan/Temp Monitoring) To enable fan speed/temperature on Windows, you can integrate with:

• OpenHardwareMonitor
• LibreHardwareMonitor

These tools expose sensors that psutil or third-party packages can tap into.

📈 Live Chart Example

🌈 Customization Ideas

• Add system tray integration
• Add logging/export to CSV
• Show process list (like top)
• Add battery status
• Add alerts for high usage
