 Hi,
 Can anyone recommend a good tutorial in using GKrellM to monitor system 
 and cpu temps and fan speeds?  I've read a few but so far have only been
 
 able to get CPU temp sdisplayed. My board is an Abit NF7-M with Athlon
 2500.

Is it really just gkrellm that you're asking about here?  Because that's
easy -- go to the configuration menu, to Builtins, to Sensors, and
configure.  Enable the sensor displays you want and go.

But I suspect what you're really asking is not How do I get gkrellm to
show sensor readings?, but How do I enable access to the sensor data in
the first place, regardless of what program is actually displaying the
temps/fan speeds/voltages?  Correct?

Yes. That is what I mean.  (How do I enable access to the sensor data 
in the first place, regardless of what program is actually displaying 
the  temps/fan speeds/voltages? )

install lmsensors for cpu temp and fans
install hddtemp for disk temp
add gui to flavor per user taste
add monitoring to flavor per remote colo taste 
( shutdown before it goes down by itself, and tell the remote techie to
 change the fan )

Hi Alvin,
I have lmsensors installed but only the cpu temp seems to pass data to 
GKrellM.  The machine's bios also gets a case temp and fan speeds for 
the cpu fan and power supply fan. I can't get them to show up in GKrellM.

I'll install hddtemp when I get these working.
