nickguletskii / GLXOSD

GLXOSD is an extensible on-screen display (OSD)/overlay for OpenGL applications running on Linux with X11 which aims to provide similar functionality to MSI Afterburner/RivaTuner OSD. It can show FPS, frame timings, temperatures and more in OpenGL games and applications. It can also be used to benchmark games, much like voglperf.

Cant get NVMLDataProvider working #100

Open jonnyteronni opened 7 years ago

jonnyteronni commented 7 years ago

Hi! Good work on GLXOSD! Trying to get GPU information on screen with no success. My NVMLDataProvider is enabled = true. I'm able to see the info on nvidia settings. Can it handle SLI?

Thanks!

Antergos 64bits Nvidia GTX780 x2 SLI

It is likely that the paths to NVIDIA's management library are incorrect. By default, GLXOSD ships with a configuration for Ubuntu-based systems, and users of other distros may need to adjust paths.lua to point to the correct shared libraries.

Thank you for your quick reply! I will check it out and will tell you how it goes

I did it. Now I'm trying to configure the glxosd to give me CPU and GPU loads. Should the default configuration already give that output?

I am sorry for the late reply, but there's currently no way to display CPU usage. The GPU usage, however, should be available... Maybe you aren't actually running NVIDIA's proprietary driver? Or maybe you have hybrid graphics? Is the specified nvidia_ml compatible with the driver version you are running?

Also, have you changed any NVMLDataProvider-related settings (besides the path to nvidia_ml)?
