Last commit: [32d798e0] multicore-sys-monitor v3.8.0: Show the amount of Total, Used and Available memory and swap (in Bytes) in the tooltip (#8422)

Displays in realtime the cpu usage for each core/cpu and overall memory usage.

README

Multi-Core System Monitor

This applet displays real-time CPU usage for each core/processor as well as overall memory and disk usage (including encrypted partitions). It also can display the CPU temperature.

Dependencies

For Cinnamon version lesser than 6.4 you must install the gir1.2-gtop-2.0 package to use this applet. This package is no longer needed with Cinnamon 6.4+.

CPU temperature

By default, this applet read the CPU temperature from the system file: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone1/temp

If this does not work for you, search for the appropriate file from /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone* using nemo.

Once found, this file should contain the information 41000 when the CPU temperature is 41°C. Then enter its path in the "Path to the system file used to check the CPU temperature" field, in the CPU tab of this applet's settings.

You can display the CPU temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F), if you wish.

You can set color warnings when the CPU temperature reaches a High or Critical level.

Network

Starting with Cinnamon 6.4, you can display the total amount transferred or the instantaneous transfer speed.

Instructions for upgrading to Cinnamon 6.4

From Applet Settings:

Uninstall entirely this applet, selecting it then using the ⨂ button.
Use the Download tab to download this applet.
Return to Manage tab to add this applet to your panel.
Open this applet settings and configure it using each tab.
The Colors tab allows you to set the colors used by Net and Disks devices.
In the Net and Disk IO tabs, you can use the “Update Device List” button to display the devices used by your system.
Some changes require the use of the “Refresh All” option in the context menu.

v3.8.0 is here! Enjoy it!

NextDNSFan-1 hour ago

Hi,testing the new feature i see now when i use less that 1 GB of RAM it shows for example 755 GB instead of 755 MB,can this be fixed? thanks again for your excellent work!

NextDNSFan-3 hours ago

Thank you!

tuxfanmatze-1 day ago

I suggest changing some "width" default values to improve the display on narrow screens (notebooks, etc.). - CPU_width: default=40, min=40 - MEM_width: default=40, min=10 - Add an option to have a "bar" view for MEM instead of the "pie" view. Then min=10 will be usefull. - DiskUsage_width: default=10, min=10 (A small bar is enough to view, actually the default=64 is much to wide.) I have currently written a script that sets the correct values after an update, but my suggested values are sure to be helpful for other people as well. Thank you very much for all your work on the applets, I really appreciate it!

tuxfanmatze-1 day ago

I picture of the Mult-Ccore System Monitor in my taskbar: https://nc.matzes-cloud.de/s/GkdRgPMititr6n7

claudiux-5 hours ago

Default values will not be changed. OK to set min values to 10. Have a "bar" view for MEM instead of the "pie" view needs more work. This is a good idea. Please be patient. Thanks!

NextDNSFan-3 days ago

Hi,is it possible to add to the Tooltip the amount of GB of Ram i am using,because it only shows the percentage and not the GB of Ram used and Free, thanks in advance

tuxfanmatze-1 day ago

For me the same with RAM in Total Used/Free. That would be helpful. Thank you for all your work!

claudiux-3 days ago

I'll try. Please be patient.

NextDNSFan-3 days ago

Thank you! off course,take all the time that you need,thanks in advance

JackDawson2027-3 days ago

Thank you so much,it will be really useful

claudiux-5 hours ago

Next version (3.8.0) is coming soon.

claudiux-4 days ago

v3.7.0 is here! - New section in Network: "Total amount or instant speed". - The user can choose to display the Instant network speed or the Total transfer amount or... none. - Values can be displayed permanently or only when hovering over this applet. - The user can choose the corner in which to display these values. - New option in CPU: "Corner in which to display the temperature". Enjoy it! BR

claudiux-3 weeks ago

Version 3.5.0 is here, with its CPU temperature display feature! Enjoy it!

CtrlAltDel1-2 weeks ago

Thanks a lot, Claudiux.

BenoitAmauryHage-3 weeks ago

Hi Claudiux, Quick question: will we be able to modify the color of the network and disk IO in the future?

BenoitAmauryHage-3 weeks ago

Sorry... I should read the description first before posting!

CEHitchens-3 weeks ago

Follow-up remark regarding Version 3.4.2 (2026-02-15 02:15:29): Setting a width for e.g. CPU or Network, other than 16, 32, 48, let's say 40, does not really work. You can briefly set it to that value, only to watch it jump back to one of those 16*x values shortly after.

claudiux-3 weeks ago

The box width can be adjusted in steps of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 pixels in the General tab of this applet settings. Please, set this step to 1px and retry.

CEHitchens-3 weeks ago

Yes, version Version 1.0.1 (2026-01-27 13:24:13), lowest value I can set it to (tested for CPU and network) is 16px. Moving the slider to 40px, results to it jumping up to 48px a brief moment afterwards.

claudiux-3 weeks ago

Please open an issue.

CEHitchens-2 weeks ago

Done, solved. Working as intended.

JackDawson2027-3 weeks ago

Hi,could you please add the option to make round borders,the idea is the borders look and have the same options and configurations like in Sensor Monitor,thanks in advance

claudiux-3 weeks ago

Done in v3.4.2. BR

NextDNSFan-1 week ago

Thank you so much!

BenoitAmauryHage-3 weeks ago

Hi Claudiux. The device list in the Network section is empty for me. When I update the device list, it stays empty. Can you help me? Many thanks in advance.

claudiux-3 weeks ago

Done in v3.4.2. BR

Merci !

claudiux-3 weeks ago

Please open an issue using the Issues button at the top of this page.

Thank you so much!

CEHitchens-1 month ago

Version 3.4.0 (2026-02-03 22:44:40) Adjusting the width of the 'boxes' only allows 16px steps, i.e. 16, 32, 48, 64 and so on. Weren't we able to set in-between values in former versions?

claudiux-1 month ago

This problem will be solved in the next version.

CEHitchens-1 month ago

Thank you for the quick response. +1

claudiux-1 month ago

Done in v3.4.1. * Smoother reading of all system data, even those related to networks. * The box width can be adjusted in increments of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 pixels in the General tab of this applet's settings. Please add +1 (star) to this applet, at the top of this page.

CEHitchens-1 month ago

Happily added a star (+1), as I really like this applet.

claudiux-1 month ago

v3.4.0 is here! Reading most system data becomes smoother thanks to the use of an asynchronous method. Enjoy it!

Raighar-1 month ago

Really nice applet. I only need a percentage count instead of a graph. Is something like this possible? I cannot find a setting for that. Thanks!

claudiux-1 month ago

Thank you. Could you be more specific? The counts are shown in the tooltip. How would you present them on the panel?

Raighar-1 month ago

Thanks for your reply.Having a percentage or absolute number instead of a graph makes it easier to recognize at first glance. I quickly edited a screenshot to give an idea of what it could look like: https://imgur.com/LlV8L1O Additionally, the number could be colored depending on the current usage percentage to make it even more recognizable. Hope my feedback help :)

paranoidi-2 months ago

My CPU usage chart was changed not to be full height of the panel and adjusting newly added dimension (Graph height) is not sufficient on 4K display. Additionally accessing settings is now more difficult due it being in collapsed context menu.

claudiux-2 months ago

Please try v3.2.2.

claudiux-2 months ago

Please try v3.3.0. Changes are: * Better takes into account HiDPI display. * Graph height in % of panel height, instead of pixels. * Lets open the Configure submenu of context menu.

Wolfen113-2 months ago

It seems the question is no longer relevant. I was able to adjust the dimensions to my panel using the widget settings.

Wolfen113-2 months ago

Hi. Since the Cinnamon 6.6 update on Arch Linux, my widget has become larger than the panel's size. Is there a way to fix this? https://mega.nz/file/UVhAHA5L#aamPnW3oTrCwCAr9ZrT4M-S7oQqqedundbFUK1M-P7A

claudiux-3 months ago

v3.2.0 is here. Added option "Graph height (pixels)". Many thanks to Alex Rock (@Pierstoval)! Now compatible with Cinnamon 6.6.

chrisstavrou-4 months ago

Thanks for the applet. Do you consider adding support of encrypted partitions as well? I have already did a workaround which works for me, happy to share it.

claudiux-4 months ago

If you have a solution, I would love to hear it. Please submit a pull request or open an issue to discuss it.

claudiux-4 months ago

Done with v3.1.3. Many many many thanks to you @chrisstavrou!

ii0-0ii-5 months ago

LM22.2 works great ; now i can monitor my activity at a glance and status of my PC

claudiux-6 months ago

v3.0.0 is here! It was eagerly awaited by numerous users. The different colors for cache and buffer memory in the RAM graph are back!

CtrlAltDel1-6 months ago

Great, Claudiux. I, for one, really appreciate you getting the cache and buffer entries back into the lineup. Thank you.

claudiux-6 months ago

v2.9.0 is here. It reduces data recovery time by a factor of 50!

atteatte-6 months ago

Very cool, the stutter seems to be gone for real this time :) Will you be bringing back the different colours for cache and buffer in the ram graph?

claudiux-6 months ago

Soon, I hope.

claudiux-6 months ago

Done with v3.0.0.

Uwe-6 months ago

Is there a way to set the network scaling (e.g. bottop is 0 MBit/s, TOP is 100 MBit/s) ?

claudiux-6 months ago

No, scaling is automatic. I will attempt to make it manual.

Uwe-6 months ago

When I change the screen resolution, the size of the graphics changes. Is there a workaround for this? Restarting Chinnamon does not help because I then have to change the resolution again.

claudiux-6 months ago

The size of graphics is expressed in pixels. When you change the screen resolution without changing these values, it is normal for graphics to become larger or smaller.

Uwe-6 months ago

I found a solution by myself: right-click on the graphic, then click on "Reload everything".

claudiux-6 months ago

v2.7.0 is here. Graph Border options have been added.

Foxtail-6 months ago

I'm using a translator. In the latest versions swap has become a background and not part of the circle. Is there any way to fix this? https://photos.app.goo.gl/pfgqmbeKwhSsZSrW6

claudiux-6 months ago

Swap was never part of the circle.

Foxtail-6 months ago

https://photos.app.goo.gl/nXpQ4YYFNXf45bFP9 What does the yellow color in your screenshot represent?

claudiux-6 months ago

It represents the buffers that are no longer present in the circle.

Foxtail-6 months ago

Really? It's very strange, I don't remember my background turning yellow before, and my swap color has always been like this.

claudiux-6 months ago

v2.6.2 is for you.

Foxtail-6 months ago

Nice! Thank you very much! I love your applet.

claudiux-6 months ago

v2.6.0: Improved processor measurement speed! TODO: Also improve the speed and detail of memory measurement (display buffers, etc. in the graph).

MG-7 months ago

There appears to be a bug in: get-disk-info.sh Version 2.5.2 (2025-08-11 21:46:37) The -A option is reporting as an invalid option, perhaps -a is meant instead?

claudiux-7 months ago

Please try `--noempty` instead of `-A` and tell me if that works. What is your distro? Also, please read `man lsblk` and give me the option to "Don’t print empty devices."

MG-6 months ago

lsblk from util-linux 2.37.2 doesnt have the option to not display empty devices, 2.38+ does but that's not being backported so far, from what I can gather

MG-6 months ago

Linux Mint 21 series Cinnamon 6.0 series lsblk from util-linux 2.37.2 lsblk doesn't appear to have an option to not print empty devices. I believe it does so by default. When using -a the loopN devices are listed without the -a only the storage devices I have are listed. Also, I can never get any device, other than /, to display in the disks preferences tab. How can I debug the applet?

claudiux-6 months ago

Thank you. I will update `get-disk-info.sh` but it is useless with Cinnamon 6.0. Try updating to Cinnamon 6.4 to view data from nvme disks.

MG-6 months ago

I guess it could be this: The nvme disks are taken into account from Cinnamon 6.4.

claudiux-6 months ago

Yes, it is.

claudiux-6 months ago

The `get-disk-info.sh` script is updated in v2.6.3. Please update to Cinnamon 6.4+ to use it.

Wolfen113-7 months ago

I'm using a translator. Hi. Thanks for the additional instructions on how to update the app to make it work. It took me a while to figure out why all the colors and settings were broken. And the network and disks stopped showing anything at all, and only went to the site read that you need to uninstall and put the application again, and update its functions separately. However, I have a question. Previously, in the circle Memory, clearly showed how much is occupied, how much in the buffer, and free. But now I don't see the option to show the buffer anywhere. Except in the details on mouseover. Is this the way it's designed, or is it part of the problem?

atteatte-7 months ago

The video stutter bug is still not resolved, it's a lot better with the more efficient script but I believe the root issue is still there. Clearly visible stutter on panning shots in video or glxgears correlating to the applet refresh rate, reloading Cinnamon tames it down a bit, but it only goes away completely by disabling the applet. Like some others have written I've had this stutter for a long time, probably years, but I never correlated it to this applet until the recent issues exaggerated it.

claudiux-7 months ago

Please try v2.5.2. I'm working on these lag problems. I don't want to use glibtop, which is not recommended by the Cinnamon team.

atteatte-7 months ago

I'm not noticing any difference unfortunately. I'm not a programmer myself, but it seems as if the problem is the stat polling makes Cinnamon pause drawing the screen, maybe it's possible to uncouple the polling from the drawing of the applet in some way?

claudiux-7 months ago

I just had an idea...

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.4.0 is here. It improves memory calculation.

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

https://i.imgur.com/TYzYIl6.jpeg

claudiux-7 months ago

Solved in v2.5.0. See the CHANGELOG section above.

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

Claudiux, it did solve the negative memory calculations and the outputs exceeding 100%. Unfortunately, the newest update removed the cached and buffer entries. I always used those to see how close I may be getting to using the swap file and would hate to lose them.

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

https://i.imgur.com/q41AerR.jpeg

claudiux-7 months ago

Does version 2.5.1 work for you?

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

I'm not sure. I was actually referencing the memory entries for buffer and cache that have always been included with Multi-Core. I don't know what to do with swap entries for buffer and cache or how to read them. https://i.imgur.com/srbYgFe.jpeg

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.3.5 is here and improves its speed. Tested during a session using only this applet, the program `glxgears` runs smoothly.

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.3.4 is here. From now on, you can choose to fix the origin of the pie chart (Mem) at 12 o'clock. Enjoy it!

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.3.3 is here and allows Square views. Enjoy it!

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.3.2 is here and fixes some bugs. Enjoy it!

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.3.0 is here! * New options "Label" in settings: one for each type (CPU, Mem, Net, Disks). This option is only visible when the Labels option is checked in the General tab. * New option "Merge all" in CPU, Net, Disks tabs. Once this option is checked, a single device grouping all devices is displayed. The colors used are #0 and #1 (for Net and Disks). * The user can choose up to 32 different colors. Enjoy it!

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.2.2 includes a new script about CPUs written by @LeosBitto. This script improves performance and fixes some bugs. Many thanks to @LeosBitto!

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

Great job on 2.2.2, Claudiux. It runs great now and CPU values are back to normal. Thanks. And thanks to LeosBitto, also.

Kai Diestelmeier-7 months ago

Apparently now I have to re-configure my settings after every update of the applet; is this really necessary?

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

All you need to do is to right click on Multi-Core System Monitor, select configure, select the "more options" button at the top right corner of the configuration settings and select "export to file". This will save your settings, options, colors, etc... to a .json file. To restore your settings, perform the same steps as above but choose "import from file" to restore your personalized options.

claudiux-7 months ago

Try completely removing this applet and then reinstalling it, as described in the README section above.

claudiux-7 months ago

The measured values will be more accurate in version 2.2.1.

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

Claudiux, thanks for the prompt action on the issue. Unfortunately, for me, now it seems as if Multi-Core System Monitor 2.2.1 itself is causing slightly elevated CPU usage. With the program running, Gnome System Monitor is consistently showing CPU usage values in the 8-15% range on most of the cores. In the previous version, Multi-Core was showing 50-60 percentage ranges on all the cores but Gnome System Monitor was showing 0-3% on all cores when computer was idle, as is normal. Put more simply, while using Multi-Core 2.2.1, actual accurate readings of CPU values on Gnome System Monitor never drop down to the 0% - 3% range, they are slightly elevated. With Multi-Core running with computer at idle and no programs open or running: https://i.imgur.com/EP8B7xy.png Without Multi-Core running with same conditions: https://i.imgur.com/sC204kA.jpeg

Lee C Williams-7 months ago

I got curious about this and can confirm that the applet is causing additional CPU usage; after removing it the usage dropped similarly to CtrlAltDel1's.

claudiux-7 months ago

(about CPUs).

Lee C Williams-7 months ago

Hey Claudiux! Great fix; usage is back to normal! :) Only issue still is when using: Colour by activity level + NOT use automatic colours; it only uses the 20-40 colour, randomly changing to white sometimes on random cores. Minor issue: CPU graph doesn't use the full space even with labels disabled (also if labels could be enabled per graph instead of all on/off that'd be great.) I'm also not entirely sure about having a table of colours instead of setting them per readout. I had configured the network and disk IO colours to be more distinguished for all drives and now I can't tell which is what without having to go through them all again in a clunky and limited fashion; 2 Network types, up and down is 4 colours used. 6 disks read and write is 12 colours used- yet there's only space for 15. While I realise I may be an outlier in this regard it's still a bit of an iffy change.

claudiux-7 months ago

The calculation of CPU usage is now correct with v2.2.0!

CtrlAltDel1-7 months ago

As mentioned by several others, extremely erratic and incorrect CPU Usage date showing false high readouts. Have reinstalled, a couple of times, rather than just updating to attempt to rectify issue thinking it was a problem on my end. Thanks to Claudiux for a great and beloved applet and will be checking back periodically to see when I can start using it again. :-)

CPU Usage Data

Lee C Williams-7 months ago

Latest update, CPU non-automatic colours doesn't work, it just sets them all to white, I also have to echo Piotr and YashaNoos, the core percentage is way off and looks to be almost 100% constantly when actual core usage is closer to 4%. Also now missing the ability to turn the labels off.

Piotr Kozaczuk-7 months ago

All cores 33% on idle (AMD zen3), custom colors for CPU usage bars not working Using Mint Cinnamon 6.4.8, v2.1.0

YashaNoos-7 months ago

Since the update the cpu monitor behave strangely and display higher cpu usage than reality, like 50% + on half the cores on an idling system while the task manager show reasonable usage. Using v2.1.0 Cinnamon 6.4.8

Steffen Dünner-7 months ago

Wow, 2.0.0 looks like a big update. One thing that I already direly miss is clicking the graphs does no longer open a task manager. Can this functionality be added back again please?

claudiux-7 months ago

v2.1.0 is for you.

Filip Leander-9 months ago

Is it possible to show just percentage (such as RAM: 17%) instead of the graphs? I have been able to remove labels and hide graphs, but not this.

claudiux-1 year ago

v1.9.9 is here. It provides a better reading of swap usage and so fixes issue #5177.

claudiux-1 year ago

v19.8 is here. Now this applet works even even then you plug-in or plug-out an ethernet device on a USB-C port. In addition, by right-clicking on this applet, you can choose to drop the memory cache (or at least reduce its size) to obtain truly free memory. Enjoy!

claudiux-1 year ago

You'll only see the option to delete the memory cache if you're a sudoer (i.e. if you can use 'sudo').

Wolfen113-1 year ago

I already asked this question a year ago. No one answered, but maybe this time there will be an answer. Does anyone know how to replace the launch of gnome-system-monitor with system-monitoring-center? I removed gnome-system-monitor and replaced it with another one. But now, when I click on Multi-Core System Monitor with the mouse, nothing starts. Arch Linux, cinnamon.

claudiux-1 year ago

Are you sure? *** Announcement (31.10.2023): End of support for System Monitoring Center v2.x.x. The project is ended. System Monitoring Center 12.2020-10.2023. *** Source: https://github.com/hakandundar34coding/system-monitoring-center

Wolfen113-1 year ago

Sorry, I'm writing this through Deelp translator. Even though you say that system-monitoring-center is outdated. Nevertheless, I don't want to switch to gnome and I put a monitor from aur. I had to seek help from gpt4o chat to solve my problem and he found it. What would your multicore-sys-monitor see my system monitor. I had to manually in the file ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/multicore-sys-monitor@ccadeptic23/х.х/applet.js Fragment of the configuration file running the gnome system monitor, replace with: _runSysMon: function() { let systemMonitoringCenter = appSystem.lookup_app('system-monitoring-center.desktop'); if (systemMonitoringCenter) { systemMonitoringCenter.activate(); } }, And then in /usr/share/applications/ create a new shortcut system-monitoring-center.desktop/ Since my system is in Russian language as well as all shortcuts in it. Therefore multicore-sys-monitor did not see the required system monitor, and did not run. This solved the problem temporarily. But after every update of multicore-sys-monitor, configuration files are reset to default. If multicore-sys-monitor would have a function to manually select which system monitor it will run, through a graphical interface, regardless of the name and language of the system. This would be a solution for many people. About which people have already written below, complaining that even the gnome system monitor is lost.

claudiux-1 year ago

That works well on my system (Mint 22 Cinnamon 6.2.7): _runSysMon: function() { let systemMonitoringCenter = appSystem.lookup_flatpak_app_id ('io.github.hakandundar34coding.system-monitoring-center'); if (systemMonitoringCenter) { systemMonitoringCenter.activate(); return } let gnomeSystemMonitor = appSystem.lookup_app('gnome-system-monitor.desktop'); if (gnomeSystemMonitor) { gnomeSystemMonitor.activate(); } },

claudiux-1 year ago

I'll test it on Arch...

claudiux-1 year ago

This one works well on arch: ``` _runSysMon: function() { let systemMonitoringCenter = appSystem.lookup_flatpak_app_id('io.github.hakandundar34coding.system-monitoring-center'); if (systemMonitoringCenter) { systemMonitoringCenter.activate(); return } systemMonitoringCenter = appSystem.lookup_app('io.github.hakandundar34coding.system-monitoring-center.desktop'); if (systemMonitoringCenter) { systemMonitoringCenter.activate(); return } let gnomeSystemMonitor = appSystem.lookup_app('gnome-system-monitor.desktop'); if (gnomeSystemMonitor) { gnomeSystemMonitor.activate(); } }, ```

claudiux-1 year ago

v1.9.7 is for you.

claudiux-1 year ago

1.9.6, sorry.

Wolfen113-1 year ago

I installed the 1.9.6 update. Everything works fine now. I don't even have to manually create a desktop shortcut in /usr/share/applications anymore. For several years I thought this problem was impossible to fix, But you fixed it and made my day better. Thank you!

FireStarW-1 year ago

I updated to Ubuntu 24.04 from 23.10 recently and it seems this applet no longer opens the gnome-system-monitor upon clicking it.

FireStarW-1 year ago

looking at the applet, it looks like ubuntu may have renamed the gnome-system-monitor *.desktop to "org.gnome.SystemMonitor.desktop", away from "gnome-system-monitor.desktop", which the applet expects

claudiux-1 year ago

Thank you. I'll take that into account.

claudiux-1 year ago

v1.9.7 is for you.

claudiux-1 year ago

1.9.6, sorry.

Foxtail-me-1 year ago

On Linux Mint 21.3, at some point the RAM and DISK graphs disappear, leaving only one CPU. If I close any program, the graphs return. Most often it works when closing Firefox. Updating the graphs does not help, even deleting and adding the applet has no effect.

Foxtail-1 year ago

It looks like I understand the reason, RAM and DISK disappear if applications with RAM limitation are running: systemd-run --scope -p MemoryMax=2G --user firefox

europe1453-1 year ago

The same behavior on fresh install of Mint 22. "Refresh graphs" shows MEM NET DISK for a second but w/o graphs and then only CPU remains back again. Did you find a workaround for this bug, it's not clear from your comment? I'm going to temporarily leave only CPU graph until this will be fixed or don't use it at all.

claudiux-1 year ago

Version 1.9.5 allows you to choose, in the context menu (right-click), whether the applet should be displayed with or without graphics. The tooltip with values is still present.

heavenlyhexidecimal-1 year ago

Perfect. The option for just the tooltip is really useful. Just like in "sensors monitor" app.

JackDawson2025-2 years ago

Hi! sorry to bother you so much! could you please add the latest changelog in this web page and leave it like in the Sensors Monitor web page if it is not much trouble and effort? thank you!

jjadup-2 years ago

My favourite Cinnamon applet. Highly customisable and keeps me informed of my system's status.

Maknesium-2 years ago

Hi, I upgraded from Linux Mint 20 to 21 and found out that the applet doesn't work in vertical panels anymore. It worked in LM 20. Is there any chance the vertical panel support will be added in the future? It's been requested in the past (see further down).

claudiux-2 years ago

Hi, I've never seen this applet work in a vertical panel. Are you sure you're not confusing it with another applet?

Fantastic extension. I just have one question: is it possible to have 2 different color configurations, one for dark theme and another for light theme, so that when I switch Mint's color scheme, the applet also switches its colors automatically?

claudiux-2 years ago

Thank you for your kind comment. Good feature request! I'll take it into account for a future version.

plumber-craic-1 year ago

I also like this idea. As I move from bright to dark environments I switch my OS theme to reduce eye strain. Thanks for a great applet!

@claudiux were you able to find solution for disk i/o. and another question if user has two drives how to select drive to monitor

claudiux-2 years ago

Sorry, I'm very busy at the moment and I need to buy a new PC with an NVMe disk; my current PC doesn't accept this type of disk.

Tariq Sajid-2 years ago

disk i/o not working if user has nvme drive

claudiux-2 years ago

I'm working on that now.

angelotux-2 years ago

thanks claudiux now only a nice applet for the cpu governor is missing

claudiux-2 years ago

I'm thinking on it. Is cpupower-gui running well for you? (apt install cpupower-gui)

angelotux-2 years ago

it would be interesting to have the gui in the panel .cpu power has a window that must necessarily remain open we would like the applet type indicator-cpufreq which does not work well it is an abandoned project, or CPU Frequency Applet which does not work crashes and does not change governor

claudiux-2 years ago

v1.9.4: I added the 'Refresh graphs' option in the contextual menu (right click on this applet). Enjoy it!

claudiux-2 years ago

Also, the maximal refresh rate is now: 3 seconds (3000 ms) as requested by @jondo in https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/issues/3342

Andrei Miculita-2 years ago

I only have 2 graphs enabled, CPU and Memory. Is it intended that when refreshing, 4 graphs are shown?

Andrei Miculita-2 years ago

Note that they are only shown briefly, the applets then reverts to 2 graphs. But It changes the layout of the panel.

claudiux-2 years ago

I see. I'll try to solve this issue.

angelotux-2 years ago

excellent applet however on linux mint cpu governor cpu applet like this is missing https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/945/cpu-power-manager/ is it possible to have this kind of app?

claudiux-2 years ago

Thank you! Interesting. I don't know if this CPU governor can fit in this applet or if a new applet is needed for it. I'll think about it.

claudiux-2 years ago

This applet already exists: https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/70

claudiux-2 years ago

Hi dear users, I am the new maintainer of the multicore-sys-monitor@ccadeptic23 applet. I intend to clean up his code and thus remove the versions for Cinnamon 3.0 and 3.2 (Linux Mint 18 and 18.1, expired since April 2021). Are these versions still used by some of you? Thank you for telling me. Claudiux

claudiux-2 years ago

Version 1.9.2 is here. Now, CPU activity bars can be colored by activity level (five sets of levels: 0-20%, 20-40%, and so on in 20% increments). You can also choose to color these bars automatically, by progressive color from blue to red (blue: close to 0%, red: close to 100%). Enjoy!

claudiux-2 years ago

Version 1.9.0 is here. Now this applet is compatible with fresh install of Linux Mint 21.1.

Alexey Seliverstov-3 years ago

I think I managed to fix the issue for a fresh install: https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/pull/4665 As a workaround while this is not merged and deployed, run the following: mkdir -p ~/.cinnamon/configs

claudiux-2 years ago

This issue is solved since v1.9.0. Please update this applet.

Alexandru Dragos-3 years ago

Great! It works. Thanks!

csabaz-3 years ago

Thanks! It works!

llueveYescampa-3 years ago

Thanks! that work for me.... first : mkdir -p ~/.cinnamon/configs Then : reinstall the Multi-Core System Monitor

Vlad Rusu-3 years ago

Not working on fresh install Linux Mint 21.1 ... please fix this, I can't live without this addon. :(

Wolfen113-3 years ago

Clicking on the applet with the mouse opens gnome-system-monitor. It's fast and convenient, but what if I changed it to another monitor, for example, mate-system-monitor. Is there a way to make it launch when clicked?

llueveYescampa-3 years ago

not working for me either on a fresh install of mint 21.1

janos-r-3 years ago

I just went from mint 20.3 to 21.1 and this app seams broken. I loved the cpu bars, I dont know if any other app has that. Can please somebody confirm if this is really broken on mint21? Thank you

Graeme-3 years ago

Confirm that it does not work for me either on a fresh install of mint 21.1. Worked fine on 21, or if you upgraded from 21 to 21.1.

csabaz-3 years ago

I confirm, it doesn't work for me either - Mint 21.1 / Cinnamon 5.6.5

Cinnamon 5.0.7 with applet 1.8.91, desktop freezing

dhdurgee-4 years ago

Running Cinnamon 5.0.5 here with your applet 1.8.91 (2021-04-04 13:07:04) I find you are allocating excessive memory overnight while the cinnamon screen saver is running. I have my memory-limit set at 320MB and in less than three hours of screen saver the limit will be reached with your applet enabled. I disabled your applet last night at 21:33 and even now Cinnamon is only using 115Mb here. If you need additional information to correct this problem please let me know. If you have a debug version or test you would like me to run please contact me.

daytooner-4 years ago

Hi and thanks for this cool applet ! i got a cpu with 32 core ... son i can't see all the visible part of this applet . there is a way to display an average usage of all core CPU and choose this instead of all single 32 core please ?

msegmx-5 years ago

Thanks for this great applet! Came here to make a feature request for "CPU temperature" as well.

Andrei Miculita-5 years ago

Would be nice if it also showed CPU temperature, atm it's a bit inconvenient to install a whole other applet just for that.

Robert Pollak-5 years ago

Thank you for this applet, and happy holidays! May I wish for a maximal refresh rate of 3 seconds? (see https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/issues/3342)

More info, it should be: system settings/applets I get the info icon.

Prsman-5 years ago

I just installed this and it does not work. I get the files in ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/muliticore..., but nothing in ~./cinnamon/configs/multi... In system setup, I get the info icon, nothing else. Running Mint 19.3 Cinnamon. I have the gir1.2-gtop-2.0 package installed. Any Idea?

chennecke-5 years ago

I upgraded to Linux Mint 20 using kernel 5.4.0-40 and after a long time of working without a hitch, the system now shows frequent hard freezes a few minutes after booting where nothing helps except pressing the reset button. I removed the applet and the system has been stable for some hours now. Any ideas? I really like this applet.

allanfr-5 years ago

This latest version 1.8.91 (2020-04-19 21:43:39) has fixed the 'freezing' issue I experienced (reported by scomoletti). The workaround was to logout-user then log back in. Multi-Core System Monitor now functions every time the PC boots, which is a great relief as the applet is VERY useful for keeping an eye on system health. The issue only affected my desktop PC, and 2 laptops also with Multi-Core System Monitor, never exhibited the freezing problem.

janos-r-6 years ago

Please, Im just setting up a new system on an nvme that I had to set to sata AHCI in bios, linux wouldn't recognize it. But now the disk IO doesn't show any graphs... It is enabled and scaling and everything is switched on in the disk settings of this app, but nothing visible. Does anyone know about this behavior? Is it because of the NVMe? Or AHCI? Or because it is one of two disks in the pc? At my work, I have also two but it worked just fine. Thank you for any response.

dolour-5 years ago

Same issue here, doesent show any disc usage for the partitions on my NVMe drive. The mechanical ones work fine tho.

saaj-5 years ago

Here's the workaround I put together for my `/sys/block/nvme0n1/stat` https://gist.github.com/saaj/82080ff888e740f5561dc8362b6ee6a9.

gilcu3-6 years ago

The same is happening here. Disk usage doesn't show any data, does anyone know where to find logs for this applets?

Tomáš Kopal-6 years ago

Same here. I think it is a libgtop issue (in my case, I am on LVM). See discussion in different applet with the same problem: https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/issues/2801 Libgtop tickets are quite old, so I don't think it will get fixed any time soon. Any possibility to have disk I/O implemented differently in this otherwise great applet?

Tomáš Kopal-6 years ago

What about using udisks? For inspiration, check out this applet/desklet: https://github.com/mariusvam/Drives-Manager Seems to be doing what is needed...

oneEyedCharlie-6 years ago

This is the best applet for *any* OS. Thank you developers for continuing to maintain it.

scomoletti-6 years ago

v1.8.91 Appears to have trouble on Mint 19.3 with Cinnamon 4.4.5. CPU stops updating after a few minutes and I don't think I've noticed MEM update after initial start either. Network and Disk both stop updating and preferences is inaccessible shortly after CPU stops updating. Applet never crashes completely and does launch the system monitor correctly when clicked. I did upgrade from 19.2, and followed the steps to remove configs and cached files.

vtvbreech-6 years ago

I am having this exact issue on 19.3 as well

claudiux-6 years ago

Do you also use one of these applets? turbonote@iksws.com.b vnstat@linuxmint.com netusagemonitor@pdcurtis

claudiux-6 years ago

The latest version of this applet fixes this issue.

vtvbreech-6 years ago

I did not have any of the other listed applets installed but the latest update does indeed seem to be working again. Thanks for looking into things though, appreciated. Thank you jaszhix for quickly implementing a fix.

claudiux-6 years ago

Glad to know this applet does the job again. But it was I, not jaszhix, who fixed the issue. ;-)

vtvbreech-6 years ago

Oh, my sincere apologies for the mistake claudiux. Thank you very much for fixing the issue for us :)

allanfr-6 years ago

I'm having the same issue as posted by scomoletti, even with the latest 1.8.91 (2019-12-29 07:19:23) version. The only way to get Multi-Core System Monitor to work correctly is to Log-out of Mint 19.3 then Log-in again. The app then works fine until a full PC re-boot i.e. starting the PC from scratch causes the applet to 'freeze' after approx 10s. Anything else I could try as this app is really, really useful?

allanfr-6 years ago

CORRECTION: After deleting the applet and re-adding and setting preferences, all is well. Previously I had 'updated' using the Applets utility. It seems a full delete + add is required.

zehm-6 years ago

Thanks so much for this, I couldn't imagine Linux Mint without this thing :)

claudiux-6 years ago

Now works well in Cinnamon 4.2, with a new display of its tooltip, more readable.

Patrick Thompson-6 years ago

There appears to be a patch that has not been merged yet. I tested the changes locally and they work. modify ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/multicore-sys-monitor@ccadeptic23/meta.json to include version 4.2 as such: https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets/pull/2472/commits/474da9740370dea8f53abf69780207ba7b798bb2

Just had to restart cinnamon here and after the restart hovering the mouse cursor over the monitor no longer displays the pop-up details. I can still click on it to open the system monitor or right click to pop-up the menu, but hovering isn't working. This is in CobiWindowList and I find that hover works as expected on pinned apps with open windows and other widgets. Let me know if you need more information.

I separate my data from my boot partition, so only the boot(root) partition displays on my system. I assume there is a way to add my data partition, but I see no way to add it in the preferences. I assume that it can be added by editing your prefs.json, but I have no documentation on how to do so. Would the additional disk display in the same area as the root? If so, I would need to change colors to distinguish them from one another. I am in the process of recovering from a hard drive failure. It would have been great if had been an indicator of some sort in my cinnamon panel telling me how healthy my hard drive is. I understand that such data is available from the drive via S.M.A.R.T, but from what I have seen you can drown in details there and it takes understanding of the data to determine the state of the drive. I would like to see a simple colored dot in the disk display colored green if the drive has no problems at all, yellow if there are signs of problems developing and red if the data on the disk is in danger of loss. Any variant on this would be acceptable and would have warned me to buy an new drive and clone the current one prior to failure. I am unaware of any other applet with such a feature and yours appears to be a good fit, so please consider this added function. Dave

Hi Jason, since the last update (I updated recently, don't really it often) current version does not respect height setting. Height of applet never changes, whatever I set it to. I have the same behavior on Mint 18.2 and Arch Linux. Since I set my panel to be a bit smaller that default, this applet is now too big. Thanks.

Peter Curtis-8 years ago

Jason, I have been using the applet for many years and I appreciate your active involvement on this great applet. The applet is still working perfectly but I have recently noticed it is gradually filling up .xsession-errors on my machine until it reaches the file size limit. dmesg looks clean. I am using Mint 18.2/Cinnamon 3.4.6 and I have done a remove and reinstall of the applet clearing folders as suggested.

Thomas Leahy-8 years ago

One minor complaint, not even really a complaint, that has driven me bonkers since I first used this applet; the pie chart for memory usage. I like having a short history and can see if there is a misbehaving app (or my own dumbness) has caused a memory usage spike. Could you please either change it or give the option to use a plotted graph like the network and disk monitors use? Thanks and thanks for the great monitoring applet!

Does not work after the upgrade to 18.2. "Instructions for upgrading to Cinnamon 3.4" doesn't help.

Version 1.5, which is currently the latest one, seems not to be compatible with Cinnamon 3.4.1. Is there a way to make it compatible?

Jason Hicks-8 years ago

The changelog info is from the original author. The newest version is 1.6 which does support 3.4. Please check for an update in System Settings -> Applets.

Tobias Gaertner-8 years ago

same here Version 1.6 stopped working.

Jason Hicks-8 years ago

WammKD's bug report has been reproduced and patched. Please check for an update.

WammKD-8 years ago

I think your latest upgrade may've broken something (leastwise, on my machine). Trying to add the applet errors out and the error message given in glass.log is "error t=2017-06-04T01:19:19.277Z Mainloop.idle_add_full is not a function". I'm running Linux Mint 18, version 3.0.7. If there's any further info. you might need or tests to run, let me know and I'm more than happy to help.

Thiago Ponte-8 years ago

Working great! I missed this applet.

angelo-8 years ago

great - thanks a lot!

bthery-8 years ago

Great applet. Feature request, I'd love to be able to specify a refresh rate greater than 1 second (1000ms) in the GUI. When running Mint in a VM I don't need to have a very accurate current CPU or memory load.

Jefferson Davis-8 years ago

Cinnamon now at version 3.4.0

Jefferson Davis-8 years ago

And, it's been fixed, apparently. Try removing it from the installed apps, go to online list, refresh, and reinstall. It also appears cinnamon itself was updated, so perhaps that's part of it?

Jefferson Davis-8 years ago

George Cohn I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. For the time being I'm using an oldie but goodie, gkrellm. But I'd rather use something more integrated with Cinnamon.

George Cohn-8 years ago

FWIW I'm getting the same failure with Cinnamon 3.2.8 as Jefferson Davis

Jefferson Davis-8 years ago

Cinnamon 3.2.8 gags on almost every monitor app, including this one, which I've used for some time.

When installing new version, the custom prefs.json file is deleted and replaced by default prefs. It's a bug or a feature?
