IOTop from MyQNAP.org - how do you run it?

Hey all,

I download the shell app “IOTop” from the MyQNAP.org repository.

https://www.myqnap.org/repo/IOTop_1.26_x86_64.qpkg

It is supposed to show the Top apps for I/O usage. When I try to run it, I get the following error:

[~] # iotop
Error opening terminal: xterm-256color.
[~] # 

How do I run an xterm-256color terminal window? I’m using terminal on the Mac. It’s color. And it’s set to xterm-256 color…

Anyone know how to solve this??

Try to declare it as xterm instead.

Jon, if you’re interested in seeing the terminal types compatible with QTS (and presumably QuTS), you can check this inside your NAS.

The following NAS is running QTS 5.2.5:

[~] # find /usr/share/terminfo -type f -exec basename {} \;
ansi
rxvt
dumb
xterm
xterm-xfree86
linux
screen
sun
screen-w
vt52
vt100
vt220
