You don't need a special plugin. Anything that will return a non-OK
state when the host is down is fine. A ping/icmp check is most common
for this purpose and check_icmp will work fine.

This is in the FAQ. The GD libs are not installed or were not found at
compile time. The output of ./configure will likely contain references
to this as well.

Nagios has integrated availability reporting via the Availability menu
option(s) though I wouldn't necessarily call it a graph. I think what
you're looking for is the histogram mentioned above...
