Maze Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 hello dear all, I've been using the lm-sensors tool for years now - first time in Ubuntu and now i want to use it in Manjaro - my actually fav system LM-Sensors - it does a lot: It monitors CPU temperature, the fan speeds, and - additionally - also the motherboard voltages that could be measured. After using it for some time in Ubuntu - my previous fav-linux.i now want to use some advanced uses of lm-sensors - i have heard that we can use it in combination with some graphical interfaces to interact with it. first i have to do the Installation: step one: Install lm-sensors, then run it with no options to see what it does: $ sensors coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Physical id 0: +47.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +120.0°C) Core 0: +45.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +120.0°C) Core 1: +47.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +120.0°C) Core 2: +44.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +120.0°C) Core 3: +46.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +120.0°C) This is on an Ubuntu PC. My Manjaro system installs it a bit different i think - and afterwards i have to take care for the configuration, on older systems - (note 10 years ago i used Ubuntu) i have followed another setup: then i go ahead: Run sensors-detect to set it up to detect the sensors and the temp of the CPU. in the past i have learned that the safest method and way to do a setup and basic configuration of lm-sensors is to accept all of the defaults by: $ sudo sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision xyz (2019-01-30 12:00:33 +0200) and.... after getting the first scan - we can the setup in modify /etc/modules: but how to go ahead now.... how to combine it the get the advanced features - and graphical output!?

requinix Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 As with most things in Linux, you install one program for the data and another program for a graphical utility. Try install psensor.
