Attachments: Diff to stat.c module which implements disk stats for 2.6 kernels (based on /proc/diskstats)

Description Holger Janssen 2004-05-29 03:44:29 UTC 
Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.3 
OS:                Linux

After upgrading to Liunx 2.6 kernel (SuSE 9.1) the disk stats sensors of ksysguard were no longer available. An exiting ksysguard configuration shows the disk I/O panels as inactive, configured sensors state 'error'.

Diff to stat.c module which implements disk stats for 2.6 kernels (based on /proc/diskstats)

Attached path solved the problem for me. It processes the new /proc/diskstats
entries, and takes care of the 'disk' and 'partition' entries. The result is
that a monitor in created for each disk, as well as all mounted partitions, so
partitions could be monitored separately.
