Hi,
     With the IO tab in HTOP, how do I determine which devices it is monitoring and how do I change it to look at multiple volumes?
     While KDE is still thrashing my hard disks after the desktop displays (the hard disk light is permanently on, not flickering) HTOP is telling me the R/W%, R% and W% are 0 for every process it has listed, so it is not looking a the right device for me to determine what is thrashing my drives.

Pretty sure it's a combined value of all IO.  Maybe you're not looking at the right process or maybe it's a kernel thing.
The main tab shows what processes are using the cpu with the most heavy user at the top, which seems to be working fine. But the I/O tab seems to be not working in that I occasionally see an entry at the top where one or more of the 3 % columns is non 0 for a very short period, but as I have indicated in another thread, it seems to me that its monitoring may not be up to scratch when the hard disk light on my machine is hard on, the disk I/O summary display I added in its settings says the disk I/O is 100% but its detailed display says that nothing is doing any I/O.

It might be an internal kernel thing.  You could also try "iostat" (sysstat package) or "iotop".
Thanks, I'll have a look at those as well. The culprit for this may Jellyfin which starts up around at least 24 threads (of which only one of them is its shell script) that it leaves active, but HTOP reports all of them as not doing any I/O.


     While on the subject of HTOP internals, at the bottom of its screen it shows a list of keyboard shortcuts, one of which is F10 for Exit. The issue I have with that is Konsole has taken over that shortcut for its menus, hence it doesn't work in HTOP. How do I change that?

You can also use "q" to quit.
I've started to use that now instead of ctrl-c. The F10 keyboard shortcuts seems to have been internally taken over by Konsole, is it like HTOP where it is not easy to change that configuration?

I use gnome.  I don't know anything about configuring Konsole.
That's okay, I've found how to change the Konsole settings, it has a keyboard shortcut configuration in its settings, but what is interesting is for its menu shortcut entry it has it listed twice, one after the other.

regards,
Steve
