New Hardware-info gui application

q4osteam · 2019-10-25 20:45

We introduce a brand new application "CPU-Q" for Plasma and Trinity desktops. It is released in two separate packages, "q4os-cpuq" for Trinity desktop based on TQT libraries, and "q4os-cpuq5" for Plasma desktop based on QT5.

The application provides a comprehensive hardware information in a user friendly graphical way. See the Q4OS 3 changelog https://www.q4os.org/changelog-q4os3

First upgrade your system:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt dist-upgrade
Reboot

Now, you will be able to launch the CPU-Q from the Welcome screen popup menu, or from the command-line:
$ cpuqinfo.exu #TQT version for Trinity desktop
$ cpuqinfo5.exu #QT5 version for Plasma desktop

Very nice, but another choice for the TDE/KDE users is installing the app hardinfo that also gives a lot of info about the system/kernel and also does benchmarks, For KDE, infocenter installed by default has a large amount of info on the system,devices and kernel.

Yeah, I've always used the 'hardinfo' install which shows up as 'System Profiler and Benchmark' in the menus.

Still, nothing wrong with having a Q4OS dedicated piece of software

I do wonder why it's hidden though among the 'More options' tag. Perhaps in future iterations I should be on the 'main page' along with the 'Documents Online' and the 'donate to Q4OS' button
