Hi,
I installed an Opensuse 15.4 workstation with kde desktop environment. The default “System Monitor” application does not show all the disks/block devices available on the machine when i try to configure a disk sensor. Only a limited set of block devices is available. Do you have experienced a similar behaviour?
As a workaround I installed ksysguard5 that do not exhibit any anomalies.
Thank you all
If I add a new page and then set up that new page to display disk statistics, AFAICS all the mounted partitions can be monitored, individually. If I plug in a USB drive and mount it then, that drive can also be monitored.
But then, that’s the same behaviour as that displayed by KSysGuard …
Hi,
this is what I see inside System Monitor (the screenshot refer to a new page I created in which I’m trying to add a disk sensor):
this is what i see in ksysguard:
As you can see, system monitor is limited to few, apparently random chosen, block devices while ksysguard let me choice in an exhaustive list.
This is my storage layout:

As you can see, a lot of available block devices are missing inside “System Monitor”
Thank you very much.
You could try raising a KDE Bug Report worded as a Change Request, requesting that the System Monitor be changed to include the sensors you require.
