Actually it's not working, some problem with scriptengine ruby-script. I installed all de dependencies above, but didn't works.

what I was looking for! for this type of monitor, the main thing is to have numeric values, graphics look good but not very useful.
Some suggestions:
- with this layout (one info per line)
eth0
0B/s
0B/s
I've no width problem ;)
- Why don't add the capability to display the IP Address?
- When I try to add two plasmoids (one for eth0 and one for wlan0), each plasmoid seems to share the same config file, so not allowing to use more than one plasmoid in the same time.

again thank you for your work

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, both widgets using same config now.I'm planing to add multi widget functionality later.

Can you please describe installation process? Which plasma-ruby packages were required?
(Some users have problems with searching right package name, which could differ from one system to another)

In Mandriva 2010.1 I had to install ruby, ruby-kde4 and ruby-qt4 (could be the same in other RPM-based distributions).

Sure. I'm using kubuntu maverick (development branch) and I've just hit the "Get New Widgets" button -> "Download new plasma widgets" -> "Install" on Yet Another Netspeed Monitor and all done. This is the output for any plasma/ruby installed packages in my system:

$ dpkg-query -W| grep -i ruby | grep -i plasma
libplasma-ruby 4:4.5.1-0ubuntu3
libplasma-ruby1.8 4:4.5.1-0ubuntu3
plasma-scriptengine-ruby 4:4.5.1-0ubuntu8

See if this helps:

If not, install ruby, ruby-kde4 and ruby-qt4.

Works fine for me.

installing "plasma-scriptengine-ruby" worked for me.
Thanks

Check please if this file could be created:
#cat ~/.config/plasma-widget-yanetload
---
device: eth0
font: Sans Serif
font_size: "10"
pattern: "#uv#um|#dv#dm#br#dtv#dtm"
minwidth: 110

pierissimo

Yes, the file could be created and looks exactly like yours....
thanks

Check "device" twice please.
This message will appear only if "device" could not be read from config file(eg: empty in config or unreadable file). Other settings are not checked.
I just can't get this message.

I am also getting ruby error as "Could not create a ruby-script ScriptEngine for Yet another....".

What am I missing here?

cician

Here it just displays up: 0 down: 0, no errors. I'm on Lucid KDE4.5 RC2

rakoth

sudo apt-get install plasma-scriptengine-ruby
and restart plasma-desktop
helped me to run this plasmoid on clean install.
Loray, try this too.

I couldn't make it work in kubuntu lucid, although I've installed the recomended dependencies

Goamaus

have installed kdebindings-ruby with plasma use-flag, but it doesn't load :-(
it says it can not initialize the ruby-script-driver...

>it says it can not initialize the ruby-script-driver...

AFAIR this message means you need to install plasma-scriptengine-ruby
Don't know what about gentoo, but seems on my arch "kdeplasma-addons-libs" package is in charge for it.

joethefox

I had the same error, solved in my kubuntu 10.04 (KDE 4.4.80 (KDE 4.5 Beta1)) by installing the package libqt4-ruby1.8 .

Hope this can help.

First, emerge kde-base/kdebindings-meta package with "ruby" flag. After that emerge kde-base/qtruby with "webkit" flag. Now reload plasma-desktop

Thanks for responds, guys.
shadyabhi, is kdebindings-ruby really required? Added it anyway.
google01103, I'll think on pattern modification

shadyabhi
10 years ago

kdebindindingws-ruby is the dependency which is not mentioned

google01103

suggestions:
- use arrows for text (up, down)
- leave off the decimal points
- add color fonts (green=down, red=up)
