How can I show disk IO in glances

Does this help.

You reminded me about glances. So googled it and this popped up

I'm just guessing that pressing d does not work?

Not seeing it on my computer too.

Fedora 29
Glances v3.1.0 with psutil v5.4.3

Problem is psutil on kernel 4.18+

That git issue above led me down the rabbit hole.

This will work around it:

sed -i 's#fields_len == 14:#fields_len == 14 or fields_len == 18:#g' /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/psutil/_pslinux.py

So the real solution will be wait for python3-psutil to update in the fedora base repo. Currently it is still at 5.4.3.

Use the above workaround if needed until then.

Good catch!

This should now work correctly without the workaround in Fedora 31

If you want the latest version, installing using pip is the way to go.
