New

  • Power in the system tray — an optional second tray icon shows the live total power as plain text (e.g. a big "180" over "watt"), or a red icon when the device is disconnected. Right-click it for a dropdown of every live sensor value (per-pin voltage / current / power, totals, temperatures, cable rating).
  • Toggles for the power icon and the unit label, available both in Settings and in the app icon's tray menu.

Notes

  • The tray icons use the StatusNotifierItem protocol. On GNOME a tray / AppIndicator extension is required to see them.

Install

Precompiled binary

The tarball is self-contained (app binary + udev rule + one-time install.sh):

tar xzf wireview-linux-1.0.6.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
cd wireview-linux-1.0.6.0-linux-x64
./install.sh          # installs the udev rule (grants serial access, no logout needed)
./WireView2

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / 26.04 LTS (PPA)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sparvoli/wireview-hwmon
sudo apt update
sudo apt install wireview-linux

Ubuntu / Debian (.deb)

sudo apt install ./wireview-linux_1.0.6.0_amd64.deb

Fedora (COPR or .rpm)

sudo dnf copr enable emaspa/wireview-linux && sudo dnf install wireview-linux
# or, the standalone RPM (works on Fedora 42/43/44):
sudo dnf install ./wireview-linux-1.0.6.0-1.x86_64.rpm

Arch / CachyOS / EndeavourOS (AUR)

paru -S wireview-linux-bin   # prebuilt, tracks the latest release

A community source package, wireview-linux, also exists but may lag behind.

Flatpak (Bazzite / Silverblue / immutable distros)

flatpak install ./wireview-linux-1.0.6.0-x86_64.flatpak
flatpak run io.github.emaspa.WireViewLinux

The Flatpak supports direct USB serial mode. A sandbox cannot install udev rules, so install the rule on the host once:

sudo curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emaspa/wireview-linux/v1.0.6.0/udev/99-wireview.rules -o /etc/udev/rules.d/99-wireview.rules
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

The udev rule (installed by every native package, the tarball's install.sh, or the host step above for Flatpak) grants serial access directly via MODE=0666 + a logind uaccess ACL — no group membership or logout required on a normal desktop session.
