How to: Get CPU temp

@asterix:

To be honest, I find 1.2.3 a bit more stable and far more responsive than 2.0RC3. It maybe just me, […]

It's just you. :-)

You should consider: asterix was hit by a menhir.

jimp,
you twisted my words or you read it incorrectly.

I said "it may be just me" but I like 1.2.3 better than 2.0 despite trying the latest snapshots from time to time.

Also 1.2.3 HAS been extremely stable and responsive for me.

can this be included by default in nanobsd snaps?

and for i386 as well?!

It still needs some additional code to allow it to be switched on/off or to auto detect it in order to prevent it showing some ugly error on machines without the correct hardware/driver.

Hi Steve!
How you are :)
Yes, fully understood and not expected by "tomorrow" if you understand what I mean.
Maybe in form of a package, then one can install if ones HW/drivers support one can install.

It isn't even on the full snaps by default, so probably not.

If/when it's a package it should be possible to use on both.

asterix · Aug 21, 2011, 7:33 PM

So.. has consideration been given to add this package to the snapshots?

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?

@Metu69salemi:

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...

jimp · Aug 22, 2011, 7:01 PM

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.
