Re: Add Model and Temperature of Motherboard in System Monitor
Hi "ericcole",
Welcome to the wonderful world of Linux Mint and its excellent forum !
It would help to know more about your system setup. If you run "inxi -Fxzd" from the console terminal prompt, highlight the results, copy and paste them back here, that should provide enough information.
There are various ways to display various information depending upon which edition and version of Linux Mint you are using, and a lot of those will allow you to use your own "label" and or title per sensor.
It also helps to provide a screenshot of what you already have.
For example:
This is one "widget" for KDE systems, and other Linux Mint systems have desktlets, applets, extensions, etc...
- has information on installing sensors

Hope this helps ...

Re: Add Model and Temperature of Motherboard in System Monitor
Good one, richyrich! Either I did not know, or had forgotten about that one. Is there a way to have that refresh every so many seconds?
Re: Add Model and Temperature of Motherboard in System Monitor
Hi phd21!
Thanks a lot!
Great command! I didn't know that!
That will help me a lot in the future!
I was thinking about to improve System Monitor for the beginners.
But that command is great!

to check sensors, you only need:Neil Edmond wrote:Is there a way to have that refresh every so many seconds?
Code: Select all
inxi -s
Code: Select all
watch -t -n 1 inxi -c 0 -s
-n is the interval, -n 1 for every second
-c 0 because the default output of inxi is color coded, -c 0 removes the color code.
You can also monitor every single value on your Panel ...
to do this you need the panel applet "CommandRunner" on Cinnamon. ("Command" on Mate)
right click panel -> add applets -> available applets online -> install CommandRunner
now to cut out the values that you like, you can use "awk".
Displays CPU Temp
Code: Select all
inxi -c 0 -s | awk /"Sen"/'{print$5}'
Code: Select all
inxi -c 0 -s | awk /"Sen"/'{print$7}'
Code: Select all
inxi -c 0 -s | awk /"Sen"/'{print$9}'
in the preferences, tell CommandRunner the location of your script.
for example: sh /home/user/mobotemp.sh
Re: Add Model and Temperature of Motherboard in System Monitor
Be specific. Which System Monitor? Are you on Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce or KDE? Which Linux Mint version?ericcole wrote:Add Model and Temperature of Motherboard in System Monitor!
Also mind that ideas for developers should better be made to the website of those developers. Once you are more specific we can point out to you where that is if you are not able to find it yourself (usually in Help > About).
