lm_sensors 3.1.0 (Stable branch)

Image lm_sensors provides essential tools for monitoring the temperatures, voltages, and fans of Linux systems with hardware monitoring devices. It contains a library for sensors access (libsensors), a command-line tool for sensor reporting (sensors), and a daemon (sensord). It also contains scripts for sensor hardware identification and fan speed control. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Sensors-detect was largely rewritten to be both smaller and smarter. Support for multiple configuration files was added to libsensors, as well as support for instantaneous power sensors and current sensors. The default configuration file went on a diet, resulting in a big performance boost and hopefully less confusion for the users. Image

lm_sensors? hardware monitoring?

ok ok ok, this is my third post on the day I become a member. I should stop. I'm sure all my questions are in the wrong forums. I'm sorry. my question is about lm_sensors, and hardware monitoring. I have the goods, lm_sensors.tar.gz, and i2c.tar.gz and I'm rather confusled. could someone... (2 Replies)

NAME
psensor - Temperature monitoring application SYNOPSIS
psensor [OPTION]... DESCRIPTION
psensor is a GTK application for monitoring hardware sensors, including temperatures and fan speeds. It displays a curve for each sensor, and uses Desktop Notification to raise an alarm when a temperature is too high. On Ubuntu an Applica- tion Indicator is also available, its icon changes when a temperature alert is raised. It can monitor: * the temperature of the motherboard and CPU sensors (using lm-sensors). * the temperature of the NVidia GPUs (using XNVCtrl). * the temperature and fan rotation speed of the ATI GPUs. * the temperature of the Hard Disk Drives (using hddtemp). * the rotation speed of the fans (using lm-sensors). * the sensors of a remote computer (using psensor-server). Psensor requires lm-sensors to be correctly installed and configured, it can be checked by running the command 'sensors'. If it has never be done, you may need to run the command 'sensors-detect' and follow the instruction. See the manpages of sensors(1) and sensors-detect(8) for more information. To retrieve the temperature of the Hard Disk Drives, the hddtemp daemon must be running. For remote monitoring: * start psensor-server(1) on the remote computer * run psensor with '--url' option: 'psensor --url=http://localhost:3131' ATI/AMD GPUs monitoring is available if the library libatiadlxx is present in the directory /usr/lib and psensor has been compiled with the ATI ADL SDK. Log is written to '$HOME/.psensor/log'. OPTIONS
-h, --help display this help and exit -v, --version display version information and exit -u, --url=URL the URL of the psensor-server, example: http://hostname:3131 -d, --debug=LEVEL set the debug level, integer between 0 and 3 REPORTING BUGS
