Hmmm interesting tool. If I understand it right, it is a web based monitor.. ie you use a web browser to view the output. Thanks for the tip on this one :-)
I've also been tinkering with SuperKaramba ... --------------- hddtemp /dev/sda | awk '{print $4}' 33°C -------------
It's nice to see they're using Unicode.
but SuperKaramba is not co-operating and displaying the value... just a blank spot. I've tested with just text in this location, and it shows fine, so it's not a silly error like trying to display outside of boundaries. In theory it shoudl work, and there are other themes using similar constructs... Any tips or ideas on this one?
I can't help you with SuperKaramba. I've played with it a bit, but I've never tried to write my own modules for it, nor have I done more than check it out. Unfortunately, when one searches for "Smartmontools SuperKaramamba" together, you mostly find alphabetical package listings where the two alphabetize close to each other, making most of the hits spurious.
If I can get this so I can monitor hd temps, it'd be a perfect compliment to using Munin as a weekly checkup tool.
Munin is a monitoring tool. You can have it plot values over varying timescales, so you could, e.g., have it record hourly drive temperatures and then you could readily see daily variational patterns (if in fact that computer is subject to cyclic daily environmental or usage patterns).
