Submitted: Dec 27 2010
Updated: May 8 2011

Description:

This is my first program in Python and I wrote this plasmoid because I did not want to install superkaramba for a NVidia temperature monitor.

This plasmoid is just a few \"nvidia-setting --bla-bla-bla | grep bla\". It displays card model, opengl and driver versions, video memory and cuda cores, and the current temperature.

It is a very simple plasmoid, it has no settings whatsoever and it updates the temperature reading every 10 seconds. All other text is red only once, at the startup.

I started to write this based on the code from this plasmoid: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Very+simple+CPU+temperature?content=121205 so thanks to the author.

My free time is limited, so I do not have any future plans for this, but if you have some ideas you can leave them here. Who knows? Maybe one day I will be a python programmer.

And one more thing, I know you can see the fan speed with nvidia-settings, but I have a fanless video card, so unless someone writes a patch to have an option to show/hide fan speed, I will not add it.

Changelog:

Version 1.2.1
- Fixed (hopefully) the last cases when the plasmoid shown no temperature

Version 1.2
- Fixed problem with plasmoid not loading after install on some machines. Please leave a comment if it still happens.
- Added a very basic icon.

Version 1.1.1
- I forgot to update the version number in the previous release so it had to be manually removed before update. Now it is updated and should install without problem if you have any of the previous versions already installed.

Version 1.1
- added "GPUCoreTemp" as main sensor for reading temperature
- the old "thermalsensor" property works as a fallback
- if nothing works "N/A" is printed to avoid users seeing error messages

Version 1.0
- initial release

no temperature

Alas the most important part, the temperature info, is not working here. I get a "Error parsing query". I have a GeForce 8400.

Want Debian Sid with spices? Get aptosid at aptosid.com - it simply works :)

Saved the file then tried to simply add it via the add widget from local file dialog. Throws up an error: installation of widget failed! Installed manually but then gives "script initialization error" upon adding to desktop. Running 64 Bit Sabayon Linux with KDE 4.5.4 here.

Same here, using 4.6 RC1 (which I thought might have been the problem first).

Do you have the Python KDE / QT packages installed? Other Python based plasmoids are working for you?

I for one have them installed, and at least two other python-based plasmoids work as intended.

One currency-converter and a facebook-notifier.

Do you get any errors when you install it from a console like this: plasmapkg -i ./Simple-NVidia-Info.asmoid or if you run it like this: plasmoidviewer Simple-NVidia-Info ??

No error when installing. Just a "Successfully installed /home/user/Simple-NVidia-info.plasmoid".

When using the plasmoidviewer, however, I get:

Hmm ... interesting, what does this show for you? I think this problem is solvable, but since it does not happen for me, I need a little bit more information:
nvidia-settings -q all | grep -i videoram

Please someone give me the output of these 2 comments so I can troubleshoot the no temperature problem:
nvidia-settings -q all | grep -i temp
nvidia-settings -q all | grep -i therm

I am getting the temperature from the "thermalsesnor" property of nvidia-settings, maybe some version or card doesn't have this but it has "GPUTemp" property or something similar.

Since I have only one and my own video card to test on, all of you don't having the temperature please answer my request, otherwise I can't help you!
