A good process viewer?

Hi!

I'm searching for a good graphical process viewer. I used ps and top before, but now i'm looking for a graphical alternative. Maybe someone has a good suggestion.

Re: A good process viewer?

Thank you very much for all the useful programs!

htop: I'm always in for good ncurses programs, this one is gonna be the replacement for top in terminals
psdoom: I remember this one
gps: This looks old, not so many features too. Doesn't really fit my xfce4+compiz-fusion desktop
gnome-system-monitor: This is what i'm searching for! Looks nice (the icons, graphs), shows me everything i want to know

One strange thing: gnome-system-monitor crashes when i click the 'File Systems'-tab with a segmentation fault. Pacman installed version 2.20.2 for me. Maybe i should upgrade it to 2.22, as Phrodo_00 mentioned. What is the best way to do this in Archlinux?
