To get the uptime to work properly I made the following changes to my AeonStat.kon file:

1) Searched for the "Uptime Section" and change the first line below this from this:

// Uptime Section
//var uptime_info = runCommand('"'+system.userWidgetsFolder+"/uptime.exe"");

-to-

var uptime_info = runCommand("uptime.exe");

2) Then I saved the file.

3) Next, I copied the uptime.exe executable to be in the very same directory as my AEONSTAT.KON file.

4) Finally, I close out all of my directory folders and restarted the AEONSTAT program by double-clicking on the AEONSTAT.KON file, instead of the widget file itself.

BINGO! It works.

worked, found the problem
after you make the changes you need to run the widget from the .kno file, not from the original .widget file
or change the kon file inside the widgett file all togather

I tried the code change below and it still doesnt work for me
it seems to be another problem there

I've figured out the problem with "unable to load itself" it's not a compatability issue, but rather, the place where it fetches ip address is dead. It actually contact a web server which is down.

So to fix it: Open up aeonstat.kon (find it at "%userprofile%Local SettingsApplication DataYahooWidget EngineAeonStat v1.5.widgetAeonStat.WidgetContents")

Use wordpad, notepad++

Find "//retrieve ip address"

then change the code to look like:

// retrieve ip address
// var url = new URL();
// url.location = "http://widgets.haiq.net/minisys.php";
// var content = url.fetch();
// var ip = content.split(",");
// ip_addr.data = ip[0];
// country = content.split(",");
// country = country[1].toUpperCase();
ip_addr.data = runCommand("ipconfig | grep 'IP Address. . . . . . . ' | cut -f2 -d: | cut -f1,2,3,4 -d. -s ");

And it'll load just fine.

hopefully the creator will do another re-write to make it work on the Yahoo version.. i think that's the problem. The widget simply doesn't work on the latest version of konfabulator

Widget unable to load.

I as well get the "Widget Cannot Load Successfully" error. I am trying to use it on a laptop if that makes a difference.

I get a "Widget Cannot Load Successfully" error.

Will be starting a major code rewrite in December when I return home from my business trip.

I will be rewriting the whole panel from scratch, mainly due to the annoying memory leak which can use upto 140Mb ram (on my system). (Reducing the update time to 5 - 10secs helps but still leaks slightly)

The new panel will have a much smoother code base, and the operations will be functionalised to help track down any future development problems.

If anyone wants to help with the new AeonStat please email me widgets@xenx.co.uk everyone who takes part no matter how small will get credit where it is due.

Can only check email once a week at the moment, but i will try and reply to those who are interest, no time wasters or those looking for early betas please!!!

I have run this widget on my computer since the beginning but I agree with the last comments whatever is used to lookup the ip and the bandwidth monitor had a leak... My memory started being eatin up within 5 or 10 mins of the computer starting up... heheh and I thought I had a virus... guess not..

Nice Work! I like it... but I do have a problem with it. I let it run overnight and it ate up all my memory. It seems your widget has a memory leak??

the site he was using to reverse DNS the computer isn't active. Could be it was locating in Florida.

Nice job, i really like it , but i have a little problem, it use to show the lan interface ip, but suddenly its not doing it anymore, any ideas???

Looks great but I cannot use it. When I open it it tells me "Unknown exception encountered during onload(open widget)". I don't know what that means. I have the latest version of Konfabulator and other widgets running fine. Please help if somoeone can. Any ideas?????

ZenTsu-
I'd like to share my widget with you, but you haven't provided your email. What is it? Also, I think I can help you with problems 1-3. And I don't have a problem with the Total In/Out monitor. (At least I don't think so) You can email me at jayred@gmail.com

If anyone can fix/change or customise this in full or part please do so. I'd love you to email me your versions of this widget, any changes or rewrites that are very good i'll steal and include ;-) lmao (and give credit of course)

KonStat has just had a nice little upgrade too, check out the forums for the new one of those.

I wont be able to update this panel until atleast xmas, unless i can borrow a laptop and work on this panel while i am away on a training course.

I do have plans for the following though:
1) Prefs Panel options. check box for each drive. tick the box and display the drive.
2) Revamping the HDD monitor so it scales with how ever many drives there are selected in the above options.
3) Click HDD name and open root of of that drive.
4)A working total in/out bandwidth monitor.
5) a real system call to ipconfig to get ip/mac/ local/wi-fi whatever for the lan interface.

So if anyone wants to help with any of that, please do so, i wont be back home

Ok just figured how to get more drives now all i need to do is work out how to get the 'free ram' data to be displayed. if anyone know contact me plz

timslionheart@hotmail.com

also to everyone the uptime does work.... :-)

This is a good widget but its not customisable or detectable enough, one thing is that i have a few partitions and only c: and d: and E: are visable. also the amount of RAM free would be nice. all in all its a good job besides those few annoyences, good job.

i have yet to be able to get the editing to work. also uptime does not display at all. Please help

Looks like a nice widget, but I don't get LAN/bandwidth info. Any ideas?

ZenTsu-

I have developed a widget utilizing just your code for the Network Activity. I was wondering if you would be ok with me uploading this widget to the Gallery. I would of course give you credit for the code that I used.

Pretty cool, although the uptime doesn't seem to work.

It would be better if the dvd drive name was cut because mine is too long and it's over the "used" column. Also, would be cool if we could have both local and internet ip.

Darwin this one only shows minutes not seconds, is that why you're confused?

Love this new version, sorry for the creator of the last one, but i do prefer this one :p

Put uptime.exe into widgets directory but it does not update, any ideas??

DUDE!!!

Nice work on this widget, glad you gave credit to KonStat!

Not many people bother, and claim it as thier own work.

No offense intended to KonStat maker but those progress bars were ugly as sin, but thats something that was ported over from its orignal SysStat on the mac.

Also i like the fact you included the Photoshop psd file so i can change the background image to suit my desktop .... well thought out man!

SysStat had a few nice extras, wondering if you could try and add them (might help with your 4gb reset on the bandwidth monitor).

Anyways ... awesome text panel!

For HDD Monitor.
I havent tested this on anything but a windows filesystem, the name of the drive has a limited number of characters before the text over runs into the stats i believe this is about 10 characters not inclucing the default (x:)
Havent currently come up with a better layout design for this bit without making the panel about 50-100 pixels taller.


AeonStat.kon is inside the widget.

Rename .widget to .widget.zip
Extract files
Edit .kon with text editor wordpad is good for this
Save your changes
Then Zip up the folder making sure your compression rate is normal.
Rename from .widget.zip to .widget

If anyone adds anything interesting, or can fix the bandwidth bug please contact me on the forums, would love to see what others can do with this too =)

Shared drives like samba shares or other network shares don't quite work right with font formatting. I have a samba share which shows up but all the fonts are scrambled together. I would like to get that disk reporting on the monitor widget as well. Otherwise, this is a nice tool and I like the formatting and colors.

The file "aeonstat.kon" doesn't seem to preserve my modifications, so I have a problem to view my Hard Drive.
Can you help me, please?

I find it, I didn't thought to use the search fonction :p

Nice work, but I don't find "aeonstat.kon" to edit it...
Where is it, please??
