Hi Alexander!

First of all, thank you very much for answering my question. :)
Do you (or does anybody) know, which versions supported the initialization using wibox.widget.textbox()?

I'm considering getting in contact with the Bashets-author, as the last push was done on June 24th and I can't find any changes in the commit-log which would appear relevant to the topic after July 2011 there.

Regarding Vicious: I tried that one before, however, it didn't process CPU-values as intended: I get large "holes" in the data - large sections where simply 0% CPU-usage was displayed, even though that wasn't true. As this behaviour just annoyed me, I decided to give Bashets a try (I'm still using Vicious for displaying memory-info though).

regards,
Rudolf ;)

|Hello Rudolf,

I apologize for not answering myself and for others. The thing is, your problem is not textbox initialization, which you do right with

mytextbox = widget({ type = "textbox" })

but Bashets.The wiki page[1] states that Bashets are currently only compatible with Awesome git/master. I don't know much about Bashets code but there must be something g/m specific about if the author doesn't support 3.4.x.

There are other libraries that provide a CPU widget like Vicious[2] and Obvious[3]. They both work with 3.4.x.

Kind regards,
