Hi there,

I like DisKMonitor (0.3.1) to quickly check SMART status for my drives.

But, it does not show the status for my Intel nvme drive ("unable to detect SMART support for this device").
The strange thing is, smartctl --all /dev/nvme0n1 actually does work with the nvme device:

Code: Select all

0[root@FOO]1002-00:19~# smartctl --all /dev/nvme0n1
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-linux-4.16.2-2-swift] (SUSE RPM)

I use Plasma5/KDE5 with DisKMonitor, which seems to be a KDE4 app.

I guess, DisKMonitor may use some outdated library that cannot access that drive?
Is there any workaround or hope, that DisKMonitor gets some fixed to support NVME?
Thanks!
