KDE System Monitor reads 0% GPU Usage

Ask Fedora

Hello guys

not long ago ive reinstalled Fedora 43 KDE Plasma (Wayland), installed nvidia drivers, used LACT for undervolting (installed daemon service etc) and what i realised is, LACT perfectly reads my specs GPU usage etc but the KDE System Monitor and Steam always says 0% GPU Usage 0MB VRAM used.
does it need additional daemon service ?
the problem is something else ?

You may need to install the xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda package if you haven’t already, so that the KDE system monitor can use the nvidia-smi CLI.

See this recent topic:

Now i have the same issue just with CPU Clock speed xD

That one shouldn’t depend on any additional packages.

What happens if you run:

grep "cpu MHz" /proc/cpuinfo
7

Than it reads the speeds, but system monitor says constant 3,6GHz no matter the load (wich isnt true afaik)
steam overlay says 0MHz
when i run sensors it says ID name and temps correctly aswell
CPU-X reads clock speeds well aswell (tho it uses daemon)

on EndaveourOS (Arch) and Nobara (Fedora/RHEL) both with KDE worked perfectly, now using normal Fedora it dosnt.

I can’t replicate this on my setup, I get variable speeds per core:

Which sensors have you set up in your visualisation? Is it the “Core X Current Frequency”?

I’m using an AMD 5700X, it may be named differently on different hardware.
