OK, but PLEASE do this: open a terminal and paste in this line , hit Enter and post the results here: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name' That will tell me exactly what I need Mine: 31 Jul 16 @ 18:44:48 ~ $ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name' model name : AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 450 Processor model...

it says CPU: Intel (TM) i7-4770K CPU . How do I get rid of the CPU at the end of the line? You're welcome AHA! So the CPU: Intel(R) (CM) i7-477 wasn't exact. I changed my little file to read - adding the missing ( as well Intel(R) (CM) i7-477K CPU and in the terminal to get the cut right: 31 Jul 16...

ARGGGHHH! What do I need to cut out to get rid of the (R) CM) ? In fact, it is probably just easier not to even try to get the code to list the CPU. I should probably just leave it the way I have it. :lol: :lol: yea, I know your frustration - been there; screamed out loud! :lol: I created a file, $...

@ trytip... No matter where I go all I see is % for Nvidia GPU fan speeds. Some examples: Nvidia GPU Coolness - my old stomping grounds: Automatically adjust Nvidia GPU fan speed - nice bash script. - and if the ARCH Wiki only talks % values for the cards: NVIDIA/Tips and tricks , I think I'm safe ...

Thanks Sector11!

I'm going hunting to see if I can find it.

If you have 'inxi' installed you can get your Graphics card info from that: 31 Jul 16 @ 00:46:07 ~ $ inxi -G Graphics: Card: NVIDIA GT218 [GeForce 210] Display Server: X.Org 1.16.4 driver: nvidia Resolution: 1920x1080@60.00hz GLX Renderer: GeForce 210/PCIe/SSE2 GLX Version: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 340.93 31 Ju...

Todd ... I have never once said you do not have 8 cores, I know you have 8 cores: The Linux application 'conky' shows: CPU usage by percent: ${cpu cpu1} to ${cpu cpu8} and ${cpu} or ${cpu cpu0} shows the average percentile usage. CPU frequencies: ${freq 1} to ${freq 8} shows the frequencies of the 8...

OK - what ever you say. But for temps - LINUX sees 4 Cores for temps. coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Physical id 0: +45.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 0: +45.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 1: +43.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 2: +43.0°C (high = +80.0°C, c...

^ Looks good. The last 4 temps are a repeat of the first fore temps because that is all you have. The "hyper-threaded cores", 5 to 8, do not have separate temperatures because they are not a physical device.

^ That's awesome. It shows that sensors sees the temperatures for the 4 'physical' cores you have. And look at those fans ... that's good stuff as well. You have a Laptop? I see battery voltage there: Vbat: +3.36 V (min = +2.70 V, max = +3.63 V) Go through your conky code and do one of two things (o...

Yea, I've been helping people with conky for nine years - I should retire, but I enjoy helping. frequencies from 800MHz to 4300MHz That's a good thing. In Linux open your terminal and type "sensors" and hit enter then copy and paste the results into code blocks here for me to see. http://s20.postimg...

1. Let's talk temperatures : You did not post the results of "sensors" in a terminal that I asked for, that would have shown "me" what I wanted to see. Take a real good look at the conky in the "image" you posted in the previous post. You have 5 cores with the same temperature - CPUs 4 to 8 show: 3...

Hi, Something is not right as I am losing all my temperatures on CPUs 4 through 8. I don't know why. Maybe check your code again? Thanks! Todd Well, we've both made an OOPSIE! I think Your original code has temps for "Core 3" 5 times. So when I changed them to reflect 4, 5, 6, 7. Do you have a Quad...

Thanks for pointing out the 8th core average problem. If you know how to fix it please edit the conky and post it for us. Here you go just the important stuff - popped the code into my test conky so colours, fonts etc are wrong but the idea is there - and sensors are a 'machine' thing non-transfera...

You're welcome trytip.

I don't bother with public internet address. The way I look at it, if I can read your post - I'm here

This is a very nice 8 core conky and has both the temperatures and frequencies in it! I cobbled it together from a 4 CPU conky. Maybe you can customize it to your own liking and use it yourself. Please post an image of yours if you do so. Actually you are only showing 7 cores and the "Average" of y...

^ at the rate your Penguin is ripping stuff out of you box you'd need a cron job doing that every few seconds.

Good idea though! I like the colours. Better than 'txt' or ¿just different?

Do you agree? Disagree? PS: One idea (suggestion) given to me in another forum was to also try Open Hardware Monitor. I am familiar with this tool, from Windows, but... I have uninstalled Mono - after applying a very nice guide on Mint - so I cannot use it. Agree or disagree - Not a clue! :) Open H...

Here's a GEM for you and anyone caring to read a little: Discovering and Monitoring Hardware in Linux The part I like, and I quote: Conky takes the prize for most objects supported.
