Gkrellm (unless it's marked broken - I haven't checked) will do cpu, ram 
and swap; filesystem I'm not sure, but there has to be at least a plugin 
available for it.  Heck, there's a gkrellm *weather* plugin available.  Can 
be run with the -w (withdrawn) option to put it in the slit/dock; autohide 
it if you want it out of sight, then just bump the edge of the screen to 
see it.
