The problem is kde's setting. kde don't load the file in: /usr/local/kde /opt/kde For make it work, it's necessary set some variables of kde: edit /etc/kderc as root and add the path necessary. Like this: [Directories-default] prefixes=/var/lib/mandriva/kde-profiles/common,/var/lib/mandriva/kde-profiles/free,/opt/kde3,/usr/local/kde3 restart kde & enjoy

for make it work in kubuntu, I had to move the files.. /usr/local/kde/share/apps/kicker/applets/diskmonitor.desktop /usr/local/kde/share/config.kcfg/diskmonitor.kcfg /usr/local/kde/lib/diskmonitor_panelapplet.so /usr/local/kde/lib/diskmonitor_panelapplet.la to.. /usr/share/apps/kicker/applets/diskmonitor.desktop /usr/share/config.kcfg/diskmonitor.kcfg /usr/lib/kde3/diskmonitor_panelapplet.so /usr/lib/kde3/diskmonitor_panelapplet.la

Hi, this applet is nice, but its basically useless unless we can change the size of the numbers for free space. Mine are about twice as big as they need to be and I can't read the numbers.

Can't get it to work on Kubuntu 7.04. I had to install g++ and kdebase-dev to be able to install diskmonitor. The problem is that the applet does not show up in the "Add Applet to panel..." dialog.

When I first saw your app, it looked promissing to me. I've tried to build your app but the configure script fails. I'm using SuSE10.1 64bit. Problem 1: KDE dir wasn't detected correctly, solved this with --prefix=/opt/kde3 Problem 2: QT header/libs weren't found, solved it with another directive Problem 3: my KDE headers weren't found, I installed kdelibs3-devel, but they still aren't found. I think the configure script is confused by my 64bit environment... Anybody who successfully compiled this on 64 bit?

firstly I would like to say that appreciated a lot of this program. I would like to suggest to you that implements an option to allow to modify the text size where this contained the information of the size of the hard disk. Reason When the size of the hard disk occupies more than two digits happen a problem of visualization of the first type... or be not of the for you see him.

This is grate ! but... I have problems with changing font of "Free space" - its too large ... can You add a diferent "font change" for device, mount point, and free space? + change the color for background and forground? it would be perfect :) sorry for my english

Thank you for adding the usb stick and the sorting option. Keep your work up, this applet is really useful.

sorry for my bad english. My problem is what disk monitor dissapear when i reboot my pc. it really is there, but not appear. my solution is remove the applet, and add it again. solution? thanks for Disk Monitor, great applet

Thanks for this applet, really good work. However, I would appreciate to have an option in order to remove hdd physical name (hda1, hdb2...). From a final user point of view, it's not an useful information

I have compiling and install the diskmonitor applet , please help me for start it Tanks for help

This looks great, and i've installed it and it shows up my /dev/hda devices properly, but in the configuration menu I can't see any of my other hdd devices, and I wanted to monitor them as well. I should also see /dev/hdb1, /dev/hdb2, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 Any ideas why they aren't found?

Thank you, very usefull applet. Especially handy with Flash drives. How about adding some meter of reads and writes?

Add also HDD temperature to the applet and read/write speed measurements. hi, jozef

Very nice applet! :-) Would be nice if you add an option for changing the order of the devices. It sorts them by device-nodes. That means for me, that first comes /data then / and then /home. I would like to have it in that order: / then /home then /data. Would be nice to see that feature in an upcoming release. Greetings, Lenz.

hi, now i can run diskmonitor, its very nice ! i have hda1 only, in future on next versions , can i add my usb-stick devices too ???
