sysdash

gotop and nvtop in one terminal, split with tmux.

Install

git clone https://github.com/als-code/sysdash.git
cd sysdash
./install.sh

install.sh creates a venv, installs dependencies, and links sysdash into ~/.local/bin.

Requires sudo for system packages (tmux, gotop, and nvtop when a GPU is detected).

Usage

sysdash             # open dashboard
sysdash --stop      # kill tmux session
sysdash doctor      # check dependencies

Key	Action
Ctrl+C	Close the whole dashboard
Ctrl+b d	Detach (session keeps running)

Without a GPU or drivers, the right pane shows a status message instead of nvtop.

No GPU — status pane instead of nvtop

Distro support

Distro	Package manager	Status
Ubuntu / Debian	apt, nala	Tested (26.04 LTS)
