Hello,
Just by curiosity, I've tried your shell.
It is quite similar to my plasmashell configuration. It works for me
except that I get tons of messages like:
"0 instead of 3 arguments to message {Memory Used: %1 MB (...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Memory Free: %1 MB (...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Swap Total: %1 MB (%...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 3 arguments to message {Swap Used: %1 MB (%2...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Swap Free: %1 MB (%2...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Net send/receive: %1...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 1 arguments to message {Net max used: %1 KB/...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Memory Total: %1 MB ...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 3 arguments to message {Memory Used: %1 MB (...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Memory Free: %1 MB (...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Swap Total: %1 MB (%...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 3 arguments to message {Swap Used: %1 MB (%2...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Swap Free: %1 MB (%2...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 2 arguments to message {Net send/receive: %1...} supplied
before conversion."
"0 instead of 1 arguments to message {Net max used: %1 KB/...} supplied
before conversion."
from the cpu load widget.
