sorry, missed your comment.

First of all I should note that I officially provide:
a) patches for old qt version (may be found in directory patches with quick instruction how to use it)
b) I provide Ubuntu 16.04 compiled packages for some time (at least they work on Kubuntu versions)

Regarding to your issue. I've looked one more time on your error and it seems to be related to one old component which is not used anymore. Probably I may provide you patch if you wish, but I would recommend you use the newest versions instead :) - Aug 11 2016

just have two questions:

1. Why did you use old version (actual one is 3.*)?
2. What is the your plasmashell version? - Jul 09 2016

hi,
thank you for the report. Yep, there was small typo from version 1.8.2 (when I've added temperature units). It should be fixed in the current version (1.10.2), at least it works for me.

BTW, you may now configure hddtemp cmd from configuration interface. - Jun 10 2014

в гите есть версия с пробным фиксом (идея в том, чтобы не запускать команды для тех плееров, информация с которых не нужна). Попробовал перенести настройки плеера из виджета в dataengine. С точки зрения настроек почти ничего не поменялась (хотя плеер надо будет выбрать повторно и теперь он на последней вкладке).

По идее, должно быть эквивалентно вашему решению (т.о., если ваш фикс подходит, то и этот должен тоже подходить) - May 27 2014

ответил на этот пост, потому что сайт ограничивает количество ответов.

Во первых, по идее, запущенные процессы должны убиваться. Причем через некоторое короткое время. По крайней мере, к следующему запросу у меня уже не наблюдается процесса, который проверял в предыдущий раз. Если это не так, значит да, это не нормально и надо разбираться.
Во вторых, опять же, по идее, кастомная команда не должна решать этой проблемы =) - May 27 2014

Да, это нормально (в смысле так и задумано).
Некоторые поля (gpu, hddtemp, custom, player, ps, pkgmanager) задействуют самописный dataengine, который, в отличии от стандартных системных, вызывает внешние команды (а иначе никак). Насчет секудны не уверен - но, по идее, команды должны вызываться только по запросу, а значит интервал появления зомби - установленный интервал обновления. - May 23 2014

ага, и правда, невнимателен немного. Теперь работает - May 23 2014

Хм, у меня и с org.kde вроде работало=) спасибо за информацию, проверю. Все равно, релиз не раньше выходных будет - May 22 2014

ок, добавлю в следующей версии - May 22 2014

Шрифт моноширинный стоит? Под все процентные значения выделяется строго 5 символов с учетом точки (100.0); у меня просто, например, при использовании liberation mono поля не ездят. - Apr 29 2014

привет,
Не совсем понял вопрос. Все числовые поля изначально задаются фиксированной ширины, цифры тоже имеют фиксированный формат. Не фиксируются только поля, которые имеют сложный формат, например время, аптайм, плеер.

// hi,
I do not understand the question. All numeric labels have fixed width, and numbers have fixed format too. And only labels, which have complex format, e.g. time, uptime, player, aren't fixed. - Apr 29 2014

Hi =)
It looks like it has been fixed in the version 1.6.0. At least, songs with Russian name is displayed correctly. - Mar 31 2014

Or may be do you mean that it must is "30.0"? If it is, may you post output for:

hddtemp /dev/sda

or smth like (for you device) - Dec 08 2013

yep. It should show data only for one disk. I'll add support of several disk (like in hdd-label) in the next version. - Dec 08 2013

You have an error message because you have disabled swap (I will fix it in the next version). But I think MPD does not work because you have a not UTF-8 symbols in a song title (or artist). I'll fix it too. - Nov 24 2013

hi again
I tested it on mpd-0.18.4. All work normally with actual versions of dataengine (1.4) and plasmoid (1.5.1).
http://s017.radikal.ru/i423/1311/34/e10a88a90b63.png
If everything is set up correctly it must works normally too. If it doesn't work may you do that I wrote above? - Nov 18 2013

Hi again.
It sounds good, because the previous version of the dataengine must works normally =)
So, may you dowgrade to the previous version of DE (1.4) with the same command. And then run from a console

plasma-windowed py-text-monitor

And post output here or at the github repo? - Nov 12 2013

okay
Can you download and rebuild a new version of dataengine?
https://github.com/arcan1s/pytextmonitor/releases/download/V.1.5.1/ext-sysmon-1.5.zip
If you build for a local copy just run as user:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --localprefix` ../
make && make install

Or for a global copy:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ../
make && sudo make install

And does the error persist? - Nov 11 2013

Okay, I try to fix it.
Also, may you run in console

plasma-windowed py-text-monitor

make player label enable and post errors from console if they exist? - Nov 11 2013

hmm. Your output looks good.
Okay, another question: do you have plasmate? If it is true, than may you look for mpd string in plasmaengineexplorer (data engine is "ext-sysmon")?
And do you have installed Extended Systemmonitor [1]?

1. http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Extended+Systemmonitor+DataEngine?content=158773 - Nov 09 2013

hi
Can you post output for this command while mpd is working:

echo 'currentsong\nclose' | curl --connect-timeout 1 -fsm 3 telnet://localhost:6600 2> /dev/null

(may be on pastebin) - Nov 09 2013

hmm, I can not reproduce this bug ( I added the label to panel, then stoped kdm servive. After starting kde again (using systemd) all works normally - Nov 08 2013

Okay it was bug in dataengine. I fixed it in 1.4 version of DE (1.5.1-2 package version in AUR) - Nov 06 2013

hm, thanks. It is really doesnt work. I'll fix it soon - Nov 06 2013

hmm, Im sorry. But I've added datetime label in the 1.5.1 version =) It is in simple and not adjustable long format that defined by your locale. In my case it is smth like:
Wed Nov 6 04:45:00 2013 - Nov 05 2013

So, music player support was added. Unfortunately, there is no configuration of connection to mpd socket, therefore monitor uses default settings (localhost:6600).
And I dont add date and time support now because I think there is a good plasmoid for this - Nov 05 2013

hi
tnx for the comment =) I dont use mpd, therefore it is not implemented in the current version. But it is sound good and I will add support of some music players in the next version. - Oct 23 2013

If you want install it with applet:
1. Download tarball for applet from applet page.
2. Unpack it and change directory to "pytextmonitor".
3. Create build directory and change the current directory to it:
mkdir build && cd build
4. Run cmake with needed parameters, such as install prefix:
сmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../
5. Run make:
make
sudo make install - Mar 31 2014

Hmm, what is in the directory "../"?
BTW, you don't need build dataengine separately anymore. It will build with widget automatically. - Mar 31 2014

tnx. Fixing - Oct 03 2013

Yes, I know it, because I tried to create such a patch to your applet :/ But I think that you may use special data engine called applicationjobs to do it (it is in the official KDE4 package). Or maybe some time I'll send you a patch with this extension ;) - Feb 04 2014

thank you =)

Yep, I agree that file operation and notification is different in their concept. I meant that only notification about start and end of jobs will be a good addition for your applet IMHO. - Feb 04 2014

Hi
Thank you for your work!

But some applications, such as Qutim, have text-like notification, for example, newline symbol is "\n" (not <br> as it is needed for html code). It would be nice if you will add a replacement of the symbol to the correct one. And I've created a patch that does it. (I know there are a lot of ways to do it.) Link to the patch is:
https://github.com/arcan1s/pkgbuild/blob/master/colibri-line/fix-line.patch

And I would be happy if you will add support for jobs too, such as copying files :) - Jan 23 2014
