Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

Eight percent of the male population suffer from some form of colorblindness. Therefore it the choice of colors for download and upload rates in gnome-system-monitor is not so well chosen. I suffer from mild colorblindness, and have problems separating colors with a blue base and red or green tints from each other. It would be better to switch one of the colors to something very different, for example dark red or brown, and keeping the other one blue. As it is now I can't see any difference between the download and upload, which is annoying since I use it often to check if my crappy internet connection is working.

I sincerely hope you perform this easy fix!
