How to: Get CPU temp

jimp · Aug 21, 2011, 8:09 PM

As stated before, it wouldn't make it into snapshots. A package is not "in the snapshots" it's in the package system. If someone can make a package from this, that would be great, but so far it doesn't appear that anyone has had the time or inclination to do so.

I have to say I'm finding this mod surprisingly useful. I thought it would be a fun novelty but it's actually giving me useful information about the state of my box. It actually gets surprisingly hot in the middle of the day when I'm not there. ::)

it would be VERY useful to have this information in a rrd graph on the system tab. it could even be thrown into the processor info.

again…it would be VERY useful!

Yes it would, I wish I had the skills to make such a package.

Why not to create a bounty of this packaging?

Could be a good idea, wonder how many here are interested and thereby share the "bounty"?!

can't wait for that… and I will add the cpu temperature screen on LCDProc asap...

Can anyone confirm that loading both amdtemp and coretemp is safe even if you don't have that hardware?

Seems like it might be, things like that usually are. But if so, it would make coding the package a bit easier.

Hi Jim,
Just did this after having downloaded amdtemp-amd64 and copied the file to /boot/modules/:
kldload amdtemp-amd64
kldload: can't load amdtemp-amd64: Exec format error
