[CALL FOR TESTING] Dashboard Revamp

[franco]

Hi all,

The latest development version has all the dashboard rework efforts in place. We would like to get some early feedback and we've set the merge target to 16.1.15 or 16.1.16, whatever it's going to be in two weeks.


Have fun,
Franco

I had a chance to do my upgrade and so far absolutely love the layout. I am a bit sad however that SMART (widget) seems to have disappeared several updates ago. With that said I use a small SSD to keep the system peppy, I am correct in assuming it does support TRIM on a regular basis correct? I used a throw away 32gb SSD I had lying around, but knowing its doing GC would be good peace of mind!

Excellent A+ work as always! I cant tell you how excited I have been with using this.

Hi there,

Thank you for the feedback!

The smart widget as well as the smart service page is available from the plugins as "os-smart". The dashboard layout for this plugin hasn't been updated yet so it may look a worse now compared to the others.

TRIM is still enabled as well without the plugin installed, no changes in that regard.


Cheers,
Franco

Just updated to the b_192 and got to admit I had a very big shock when I first saw it .. a good shock that is! Absolutely love the new layout, as it's more compressed and looks very modern indeed!

Only minor point, would it be possible to get the dashboard to remember that you've only selected say IPSec and WAN on the graphs? It's admittedly a VERY minor point but it's definitely something I can live with

Love the fact that the temperature graphics now reference back to the original underlying values as well (hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature for example). I've got a pretty crowded (3 column) layout so there used to be lots scrolling, now hardly any.

Keep up the good work guys!
