Hi All,

Anyone know of a speed and temperature monitor for
SL?

I have used
        http://almico.com/speedfan.php
in the Windows environment, but they don't offer
a Linux version.

Have a look at lm_sensors.


Hi Mark,

Yum says it is installed, but I have no idea where
or what it is called.

Do you know what the "man page" is called.

sensors, that's also waht the command is called.

Many thanks,

Hi Johan,

Thank you!  Some configuration required.  "sensors-detect"
seems to help.

Anyone use xsensors?

# xsensors
GUI failed!

xsensors works fine for me (at least I get a window with numbers up).
Perhaps your X server or X forwarding is not working?
I usually test if it is by running 'xterm' or 'xclock'.

Hi Johan,
I have xterms and programs running in xterms plaster
all over the place.  Maybe it is because I am running
Xfce 4.8?

You can do a few things to get a bit more information about why it failed. I would start by checking for "not found" entries from the output of "ldd `which xsensors`". Then grab a stack trace "strace -o xsensors.log xsensors" to see if you can glean where it is having trouble.

I'm still tied to SL5, which doesn't have an xsensors package, I've always used the command line tools.
