Description: LiNsta-XCPUMeter is an adesklet (http://adesklets.sourceforge.net).
LiNsta-XCPUMeter is a simple analogical system monitor (CPU, MEM and SWAP) for your desktop.
**VERY IMPORTANT** This adesklet depend on pystatgrab module. So, you have to install it via your packages management system to make it work.
See README file (*IMPORTANT*) for all details.
To run LiNsta-XCPUMeter, decompress archive in any dir or subdir in your home, go to LiNsta_XCPUMeter dir, edit the config.txt file to change the skin you want (see README file for more details). Skins available for now : Black, Default, Noir. To change options, right-click on the desklet.
Never tested on Linux AMD64.
Send me your skins.
If you want other functionalities, then tell me.
It's the second "LiNsta" desklet I publish. Other "LiNsta" desklets soon :-)
Enjoy ;-)Last changelog:
Ver 0.1 : Alpha release, and first public release. No bug (I think), but config file not optimized, not possible to change skin dynalically, and no config file for skins (some parameters are hard-coded).
Hei man!
Is the best desklet (it looks so pretty).But I can't run it :S
litus@mayolets-desktop:~$ /home/litus/LiNsta_XCPUMeter/LiNstaXCPUMeter.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/litus/LiNsta_XCPUMeter/LiNstaXCPUMeter.py", line 7, in <module>
import adesklets
ImportError: No module named adesklets
litus@mayolets-desktop:~$
Do you know what can it be?
Thansk, and well done: good job!
Sorry... I've installed Phyton (haven't it before... XD Sorry)
Now I've another different problem:
litus@mayolets-desktop:~$ /home/litus/LiNsta_XCPUMeter/LiNstaXCPUMeter.py
Do you want to (r)egister this desklet or to (t)est it? t
Now testing...
============================================================
If you do not see anything (or just an initial flicker
in the top left corner of your screen), try `--help',
and see the FAQ: `info adesklets'.
============================================================
But I've repaired it by "litus@mayolets-desktop:~$ adesklets --nautilus
"
So thanks, for this fantastic desklet!
its working on my gutsy, but got problem with the background transparency, and the configuration menu didnt give any respon.
all of the meters work perfect. also move and toggle values menu work fine.
great job...
I have Ubuntu Gutsy with aDesklets 0.6.1 and python 2.5 but appers this error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):

self.swap_krell = int(int((stats["total"] - stats["free"])*100)/float(stats["total"]))

Any idea to resolv this problem?
Anyway, congratulations for your nice aDesklets theme :)
Do you have a swap partition ? This part of the code is about swap. If you don't have swap, you have this error.
I supposed there was always a swap partition in any linux box. Am I wrong ?
Please edit the LiNstaXCPUMeter.py file.
Add the next line before the line 293 with the good indentation (1 tab, I think) :
print "Total swap :", stats["total"]
Run LiNstaXCPUMeter.py again in a terminal as a test (in the main dir, run ./LiNstaXCPUMeter.py --nautilus if you are in GNOME).
If the swap is detected, you can see your swap size.
Otherwise, there is someting wrong with pystatgrab module.
Please, tell me.
Thank you.
Now works!!!
You're right. I had the swap partition but to upgrade to ubuntu gutsy (development version yet) I don't no why but I didn't have configure the fstab to mount the swap at boot the system. I resolved it.
Very thanks for your help. Nice work with this adesklets theme ;)
I cant get this to work, getting this

I'm using Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon amd64 and screenlets 0.0.10-3
any ideas?
thx
I never tested LiNsta-XCPUMeter on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon AMD64 nor any other AMD64 distro.
If adesklets can be installed on any AMD64 distro, with pystatgrab module, then I think you can use LiNsta-XCPUMeter.
