An independent Linux alternative inspired by BgInfo for rendering live host system metrics directly onto custom or procedural desktop wallpapers. Genuine Implemented Linux Features: * Live Linux Host Telemetry Collection: Reads real operating system release metadata (/etc/os-release), kernel and architecture details (uname), CPU model, core/thread topology, and clock speed (/proc/cpuinfo), physical RAM and swap usage (/proc/meminfo), system uptime (/proc/uptime), 1m/5m/15m load averages (/proc/loadavg), mounted disk space statistics (os.statvfs and /proc/mounts), and active network interface IPv4, MAC, and gateway addresses (/sys/class/net and /proc/net/route). * Procedural UHD & Custom Image Backgrounds: Generates crisp 1920x1080 (FHD), 2560x1440 (QHD), and 3840x2160 (4K UHD) procedural technical wallpapers using Pillow or overlays HUD cards onto user-selected PNG, JPG, BMP, and WEBP images from your home directory. * Customizable 9-Anchor HUD Layout & Themes: Position the info overlay at any of 9 screen anchors (Top/Middle/Bottom x Left/Center/Right) with adjustable margins, toggle individual telemetry fields, add custom asset notes, and switch between multiple typography and color theme presets with optional RAM and disk usage bars. * One-Click Wallpaper Apply & Telemetry Export: Saves rendered PNG wallpapers into Pictures/WallpaperSysInfo inside your user home directory, applies desktop backgrounds via gsettings, and exports live host telemetry snapshots to JSON, CSV, and TXT formats. * Bilingual Interface: Instant Vietnamese and English UI toggle.
