Psensor is a graphical hardware temperature monitor for Linux.
It can monitor:
the temperature of the motherboard and CPU sensors (using lm-sensors).
the temperature of the NVidia GPUs (using XNVCtrl).
the temperature of the Hard Disk Drives (using hddtemp).
the rotation speed of the fans (using lm-sensors)
Installation
First step is to install lm-sensors:
sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
Then, s
Hi everyene, I have just upgraded from ubuntu10.10 to 11.10. I found I problem with ubuntu11.10 and it's that the computer temperature goes up to 200degrees celsius in about 15 minutes and just automatically shuts down. Also the fans is extremely slow, I think the it'speed of the cpu is set to max. I can't change it though. On windows xp the computer is fine though.
Hi,
I want to display the sensors info for my new built.
Asrock 970 Extrem4, FX-8120, Ubuntu 12.04.
I installed
Hardware Sensors Indicator 0.2 with Indicator Applet 0.50
Psensor 0.6.2.16
lm-sensors
(I run them separately)
CLI lm-sensors install has been done with the commands
Quote:
Install and Configure lm-sensors
Install the lm-sensors package.

Hi there,
I REALLY would like to get lm-sensors working on this machine.
It is an "Abit AL8" motherboard and has the uGuru thingy. I have 4 fans and would really like to know what they are actually doing. The BIOS reads them just fine.
So I've been using Ubuntu for a week now and I've noticed that my laptop heats up like crazy compared to windows and it auto-shuts down. Now I know that if I go to the terminal and use the command "sensors" it will show me the temperature.
I'm trying to get my fans to adjust their speed according to the temperature in my computer. I followed a guide and installed lm-senesors, but when I ran it (and after answering yes to all the questions) I receive this output:
Code:
#----cut here----
# Chip drivers
# no driver for AMD K10 thermal sensors yet
It's a really old computer that I had lying around and windows got corrupted so I tried installing Ubuntu but it freezes and shuts down after 10 minutes. I manage to start booting off my USB but when I click install Ubuntu it freezes and shuts down.
there are several ways to do so, as you allready found out: one that works for me is using $acpitemp and $acpifan, but this will only work if your computer is using acpianother way would be to grep the desired output of sensors just type sensors in terminal and see if you get what you desire..the call in conky for me would be ${execi 13 sensors | grep 'fan1' | cut -c14-23}
${execi 13 sen
