Anyone have CPU Speed widget on Manjaro 20.04? - tim2@timshome.com - 04-16-2020

I am loving Manjaro 20.04 on Pinebook Pro, really working well for me. I have had very few issues and most have been solved easily.

One issue that I have not figured out and have not been able to find in the forum with a search: I miss the CPU speed indicator/selector widget that was in the Debian install.

Has anyone got that to work under Manjaro?

Thanks, Tim

Which DE are you using? If XFCE, you could probably use whichever widget the MATE install was using. (I'm guessing system-monitor) and there's several for KDE. Whichever you need/choose, you can likely find them available in the AUR. (You can turn it on in the preferences of pamac.)

This plasmoid looks to be pretty close to the widget in the MATE taskbar.

I got this to work but I really don't think it replaces the Mate one. That one allowed you to control the scheme, like "conservative" "power saver" etc. ThisĀ  one only shows speed.

Thanks for the suggestion, however. For now I can get detailed results using a module of Conky that I can install with Conky Manager, gives speed and load on all cores. Although it doesn't allow me to change the scheme, it shows that the computer is actively managing the CPU speed well.
