For hard drive temperatures, the package smartmontools needs to be installed, and the service smartd started. I'm using Mandriva, so the package/service names may be different.

Okay, I reran the sensors-detect again, and this time I paid a bit more attention to the messages that came back. Looks like there is no sensor module written yet for AMD K10 processors (Phenom, etc.), so until they write it, there won't be any temperature readings for the processor yet. As for the hard drives, yes, I got that working now again. So I got the temperatures for the hard drives, and the Nvidia graphics card, but not the processor. Anyways, good enough, we'll see how things improve later. Yousuf Khan |
