Gkrellm will display ACPI temperatures as well as lm_sensor temperatures. Don't know which other user-mode packages do. Of course, you must have a kernel with ACPI support. When I installed SuSE 9.2, ACPI was supported and worked on my desktop (PogoLinux Altura with Athlon XP 1800+ and MSI motherboard) and laptop (IBM T41 Thinkpad).
Thanks for the suggestion. I've installed GKrellM. (By the way, what on Earth does that name mean or stand for? Dear Randall,
Remember the Movie "Forbidden Planet" ?? The Extinct civilization on that planet who left an incredible working physical plant that could take a persons thoughts and project or create whatever that person wanted were called the KRELL. Dr Morbius showed the Space Fereration Capt and Doctor one of the control rooms monitoring meters as a taste of how much power was avail. Well the author or GKrellM invented that name KrellMeters and shortened it to Krellm and added the G for GTK or Gnome, or both. PeterB p.s. that Movie screen play was the inspiration for the later generations of serious SF in movies and TV. The screenplay was loosely based on the Shakespeare play "The Tempest" which sophisticated scholars consider to be the finest work or Shakespear (or Francis Bacon as some believe). -- -- Proud SUSE user since 5.2 Loving SUSE 9.2 My BLOG == http://vancampen.org/blog --
