Comment 3 for bug 159974

I have installed the source code of sysinfo and done some debugging

I used
  - sudo apt-get build-dep sysinfo
  - sudo apt-get source sysinfo
to get the sources

I then ran
  - sh ./configure
  - make

make failed and this seems to be linked to a double + on line 294 of Sysinfo/SystemInfo.cs

I removed 1 of the two pluses and then make finished OK -> is the source code in the repositories incorrect ??

Adding some debugging displays it seems the crash is caused by code in Sysinfo/NvidiaInfo.cs in function AditionaInfo()

This functions gets three information items by running nvidia-settings with different parameters and then parsing the output to extract the information.

One information that is queried is BusRate
However, nvidia-settings -q BusRate produces no output (it seems that this is not supported (anymore ?) by nvidia-settings

removing the code to get BusRate from this function makes the crash disappear and everything works OK.
