Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

Hi,

This is a quick recompile of Daniele Maio & Mauro Foti's SMP plugin for Chinook from Bora. Compiling was a one line change and it seems to work fine on my N800.

Enjoy.

EDIT: I'll see if I can figure out how to add internal mmc to list too.

1.2 never worked on my N810. Will this new recompile work on it? Thanks for the update!

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

This is 1.3 and if it works on my N800 with OS2008, it should be fine on a N810 :)

The only thing I need to figure out is how to add a new mmc thing to the list. It is only showing my external card.

Awesome, this trumps Khertan's homexxx applets that I'm using now!

Can it run commands?

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

No. I don't think it's meant for that. osso-statusbar is the only applet I've seen that can do that.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

Installed fine and works great. Thanks!

Sys Stat shows CPU usage consistently above 40%, sometimes much higher, even with all apps (including the browser) closed down. All the CPU usage is attributed to maemo-launcher. Is this normal?

That other status-bar CPU meter (name? the one that includes screenshot utility) doesn't even include maemo-launcher.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

The CPU usage might be compromised by DVFS: the system is ideally always either in clock stop or close to using all the horsepower provided by the operating point currently selected. The view should be extended to show the current cpu frequency.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

I'd like two gauges, one for clock frequency, and one for % cycles used. I'd happily give up both disk gauges, and the proposed internal one as well, for that, but some people obviously use those, so it's getting a bit crammed.

It might be more helpful to show %cycles * frequency; thus giving a single measurement from 0 (at idle, though I'm not sure how that would actually work out) to 400 (full load at 400 MHz) of actual CPU usage.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

I would be way out of my depth trying to implement that.

I have noticed a major bug in this though. If you keep bringing up the details box, it seems to mess up other things. Like my applet add box once said 9425 instead of Cancel and OMWeather is going a bit odd. Sorry but I have no idea on fixing it.

Hey Q, can this be launched from xterm? I use KDE and can run just about any Maemo app in KDE once I figure out the xterm command. I'm having a hard time figuring this one out the executable isn't in all the usual places.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

PinCushionQueen,

alas no. This one isn't an executable, it's a plugin (.so file) that only the hildon-desktop can run.

Re: Annnounce: System Monitor Plugin for OS2008
 

No, it's an .so, for hildon-desktop to load, not a standalone binary. :(

Heh... beaten
