Hi,

Anyone knows where I can find an applet showing CPU temperature, fan speed, etc... for Gnome 2 ?

Thanks in advance!

there is an lm_sensors plugin for gkrellm that sounds like exactly what you want.

I know gkrellm but it is not an applet! I want something I can add to my panel like inbox monitor, weather report, etc..

You can try hardware-monitor. It is masked by portage but the following should do

Code: Select all

export ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86
emerge  hardware-monitor

I have been using it for a while, and it seems to be working ok...

Hotapplet: http://www.gnome.org/softwaremap/projects/hotapplet/

I'm not sure if there is an ebuild for this but i can guarantee it's greatness because i was involved in it's development. If you have trouble making it work first read the great readme and if that doesn't help e-mail the author - he's a great guy and loves feedback...

What does it look like? The screenshot link from that page didn't work.

Hardware-ware monitor is nice, but with my Epox 8RDA+(NForce 2) board the temp it shows is not the right one. I haven't checked to see if that is a problem with my lm-sensors setup or what, but there isn't any facility to change which temp it displays -- it just grabs the first one, and on my mb that is not the cpu temp. If I run sensors on the command line, I do see my case and cpu temps. If someone knows how to mess with this it would be a big help. I will try the other applet mentioned in this thread.

I've created a wee ebuild for gnome hardware monitor 1.0.1, which is bugzilla at

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52210

Thoughts?

If anyone is still interested I have written an applet to do this, only requires standard gnome libs, and is very customizable, including alarms, applet layout, font sizes etc. - GNOME Sensors Applet

http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=715
ebuild available from homepage: http://sensors-applet.sourceforge.net/

Yes, exactly what I want !
I compile and install it but... how can I add it to the "Top Panel" ?

tux61 · Post by **tux61** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 6:08 pm

A little reboot and then it works !

Give Trosmo a try... It's lightweight and it draws directly on the background. The latest cvs version also supports double buffering...

I am also having a problem finding the applet, unfortunatly a reboot did not fix mine.

Did you use the ebuild??
It should be in the Add to Panel menu as "Sensors Applet"

Hi..
I can't figure out lm_sensor works.
This is an applet that show the CPU temperature by the acpi interface.

Anyone won't to try it or make an ebuild?

Actually it's the best gnome2 applet imho

ben_zarges · Post by **ben_zarges** » Fri Sep 09, 2005 7:35 pm

i have gotten that far but i don't know where to put it in /usr/portage.

ben_zarges · Post by **ben_zarges** » Fri Sep 09, 2005 8:25 pm

i just can't figure out which cathegory i should put it in.

Code: Select all

Calculating dependencies   visible(): invalid cat/pkg-v: x11-plugins/sensors-applet

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "sensors-applet" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:


!!! Problem in x11-plugins/sensors-applet dependencies.
!!! invalid CPV: x11-plugins/sensors-applet exceptions

have tried gnome-extra as well but no success

whoops, i had forgot to add the version number to the ebuild file. it is compiling now
