Suddenly stopped working after update about asusctltray HOT 9 CLOSED

The gi module is just Python bindings for GObject and other GTK libraries. I doubt it is totally broken otherwise way more apps would crash on your system, maybe cpupower-gui has other issues.

Are they any commands so I can manually turn on or off the boosting of CPUs?

See asusctltray lines 181-192. Replace {path} with the path above and run the commands for off and on.

PS : I turned off boosting before the application is working and I dont know whether boosting is on or not. Are they any commands so I can manually turn on or off the boosting of CPUs?

boost is controlled via sysfs depends on your brand of cpu... (note the boolean is reversed from each other)
AMD:(1 = boost is on, 0 = boost is off): /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
Intel(0 = boost is on, 1 = boost is off): /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo

to find out if your boost is on or not:
AMD: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
Intel: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo

to turn on boost:
AMD: echo 1 | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
Intel: echo 0 | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo

to turn off boost:
AMD: echo 0 | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
Intel: echo 1 | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo

Thank you for the bug report! It seems like asusctl changed their DBus API for the 100th time, sadly I don't have much free time this week (I'm on vacation with slow internet) but I should be able to investigate in a couple days time. Would you kindly send the output of asusctl -v?

from asusctltray.

Here is the output for asusctl -v

Also I think any python based application which is using this gi module is broken. I am suing an application called cpupowercontrol-gui and it is also broken.

Here is the log for it

(base) [wick@sanganaka ~]$ cpupower-gui 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/cpupower-gui", line 361, in <module>
    import gi
  File "/home/wick/anaconda3/lib/python3.9/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 40, in <module>
    from . import _gi
ImportError: /usr/lib/libgirepository-1.0.so.1: undefined symbol: g_string_free_and_steal
(base) [wick@sanganaka ~]$ conda deactivate
[wick@sanganaka ~]$ cpupower-gui 
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from . import _gi

[wick@sanganaka ~]$ 

Perhaps the issue is some update which broke module gi ??

cpucontrol-gui have the similar issue raised but I think it is related to dbus vagnum08/cpupower-gui/issues/107

from asusctltray.

ive fixed the errors at least for my laptop.
I dont have much experience with GTK/DBUS in python... so use at your own risk.

Sorry for the lack of a response, I've been swamped with work in the last month so I couldn't publish a release.

Thanks, the fix I implemented locally is something quite similar. Be careful when using the labels of the widget as data because they are just what's shown on the UI, they never guarantee consistency on the data below. Other than that, thank you for reminding me of fixing this!

This has been fixed! I'm deeply sorry to have taken so long and I have no excuses. Thank you all for using my projects and contributing to them.
