journal spamming

[personaingrata]

hi, i have a hybrid iGPU/dGPU notebook and ive put this command "grep D3cold /sys/class/drm/card1/device/power_state" and icons to see my dGPUs power state. this works perfectly fine but my systemd journal gets spammed every N seconds (configured check frequency)...
...
gnome-shell[12476]: D3cold
gnome-shell[12571]: D3cold
gnome-shell[12634]: D3cold
gnome-shell[12677]: D3cold
...
is there a way to turn off this behaviour?

thanks for the extensions btw, very useful maybe you can add the possibility to add more than one command?

Hi, you can try to use grep -q which will not generate stdout and thus perhaps no log lines. As for the ability to use multiple commands, I wanted this to be an analog of Executor extension but it turned out to be beyond my humble abilities. So if you need multiple commands, you can give a try to the Executor or Argos extensions

thanks for the quick reply! i wasn`t aware of the -q option in grep, it works like a charm. i won't forget this, thanks!
