OpenSUSE :: Getting A Fan Speed/temperature Monitoring Program For 11.4?
Mar 18, 2011
I have a dual boot with xp and opensuse 11.4. There has been an annoying 'system fan has failed' error message that was dealt with by replacing a fan and installing speedfan and hardware monitor on the windows partition, but my opensuse installation has no such programs running, and I want to keep things cool while I'm running opensuse. Speedfan is a program that tells the fans to turn on and off. Usually according to the temperature that the sensors are reading. The program shows temperatures and fan speeds and allows you to have control.Is there a fan speed/temperature monitoring program for opensuse?
I have just recently installed opensuse 11.3 on my computer. I have switched from Ubuntu and have been trying to get things configured similar to what it was. One problem I have encountered is with installing sensors and k10temp, the module needed to monitor my CPU temp. within Linux. I have an AMD sempron and a biostar mcp6p m2+ motherboard. I have installed package "sensors" and have run the sensors-detect and it went through and found k10temp that I would need to load within the kernel for this to work properly. I had this working in Ubuntu, but not sure how to do it in openSuse. I have tried compiling the k10temp source, running modprobe k10temp and received no output, and looked around the conf files, but not sure how to go about doing it?
So i hava a ASUS M3N78-VM mobo and recently i got a Athlon II 250 CPU tp replace my aging Athlon 3200+. I installed the BIOS update 1407 that includes support for this CPU. I have Debian Squeeze installed.
I have installed the 2.6.35 kernel from experimental and this has the k10temp module that is made for the k10 series AMD CPUs (Athlon II etc). But there is also the atk0110 ACPI module that gets sensor readings fom voltages, MB and CPU temps from the motherboard (i think so). The issue is this: if i run sensors i get this:
Code: # sensors atk0110-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface Vcore Voltage: +1.07 V (min = +0.80 V, max = +1.80 V)
[Code]...
Notice the difference between the 2 module's reported temperature for the CPU (34 C vs 19.2 C). I rebooted the computer and entered the BIOS - it has shown the values shown by the acpi sensor (it increased rapidly to 38-39 but gone back to 34-35 after i loaded the OS). Does this mean that the k10temp module reports erroneous temperature or that everybody else (BIOS + ACPI sensor) is wrong and i have an ice cool CPU?
I have a Dell Precision M4500, Intel Core i5 CPU, running Linux (Ubuntu Lucid), and would like to keep an eye on CPU temperature. I've tried lm-sensors: sensors-detect didn't find any sensors; following its hint ("This is relatively common on laptops, where thermal management is handled by ACPI rather than the OS.") I tried acpi -V but got nothing thermal. The Gnome panel applet "Hardware Sensors Monitor" reports on GPU temperature but nothing else.
I'm trying to monitor the temperature of my GPUs (multiple ATI 5970) in my computation cluster. Problem is that the aticonfig tool does not work in headless mode
# /usr/bin/aticonfig --od-gettemperature No protocol specified ERROR - X needs to be running to perform ATI Overdrive(TM) commands
and even worse if I try to run aticonfig with my monitoring user (munin) it will ask to be executed as root. Is there a simple way to read the temperature of the GPUs without having to resort to X?
My nVidia graphics card gets too hot to touch very quickly. Below is current statistics, but it is usually 93C.Is this too hot? Should I speed up the fan? How I do this without risking frying the thing?
I'm trying to find a good host for my site, and I've been trying to get one with a fast, reliable connection - I frequently use it as a proxy server for various areas, and since my connection is frequently a 50 Mb or 100 Mb line, I need a fast network connection so it doesn't slow down too much when I switch to the proxy server.
At the moment, I've narrowed it down to a couple of providers that are all within a few hops and <6ms away from my main location; it pretty much comes down to connection speed. One in particular that I'm trialing offers an metered 100100 connection at a good price, so I'm hoping to go with them, but I want to make sure the connection is solid and doesn't drop to a much lower speed during the day if they are sharing it among many users.
I have a pretty simple speed test procedure - I use wget on a 1GB file hosted on a backbone with a 1GB connection, and see how fast it downloads. For now, it's sticking at a steady 11.2 MBs or 90 Mbs, which is fast enough for me, but I need to make sure it can maintain that speed even in times of heavy usage.
[/BACKSTORY]
Basically, I need a script that runs wget every half hour and logs the output and time in a reasonably readable format. It's probably something simple enough to do, but I'm just learning my way around the linux command shell, so some simple instructions on how to create and run such a script would be great [CentOS 5]. I have full root access to the server and I'm the only user on it if it matters.
I installed ubuntu for the first time tonight and to put it simply everything is very confusing. I have been looking at different forums and everyone is installing programs in code and tbh i have no idea how to and i was wondering is there a program available that lets me monitor my CPU temp & alter fan speeds?
Im looking for a program to monitor the ammount of bandwidth usage per network. Ex: I have lots of networks connected to one server, and i would like to know for example how much is the average bandwitdh usage for network 172.16.2.0/24 and 172.16.5.0/24 for one hour, for example.
Is there a program that monitors and displays 'who' is on your wireless Internet signal that one may not be aware of? Like, the ability to see when someone that you don't know is accessing your locked wireless?
Can someone recommend a good app to monitor the OUTPUT of my soundcard? I don't just want to look at the VU meter of my music player - i actually want to see what the soundcard is outputting. Windows drivers for my soundcard (Audiophile 192) had this ability, but I'm not sure what software to use in Linux.
I have a third party program (tightvnc) which I want to monitor and detect if it loses a connection with a client. I don't care if the client has the program open but isn't doing anything with it, I only want to know if the actual TCP connection is lost.
Since TCP takes forever to die on it's own I was thinking the best way to detect if a connection is lost is by bandwidth the bandwidth on the tcp port allocated to the VNC connection. Are there any tools built in to redhat (RHEL 5.2) which I could use to do this? Since I don't have full control of the operating system I would prefer to use built in tools rather then trying to get a new tool installed.
I wrote a program in lcc in windows and I have to write it in gcc in unix. In lcc there was an option to use more memory than the default for the stack. The following code is working in lcc but in gcc it gives segmentation fault:
There is a question, i'd like to ask: is there any decent program to monitor HDD temperature for linux? WHy are they so few? Suse Install repositories do not show any that could be installed. I used to use hddtemp on my previous 11.2 gnome installation, but it seems now something gone wrong, and i cant get this program anymore through: "sudo apt-get install hddtemp" and receive "sudo: apt-get: command not found", so as i am a newbie i can barely guess what is wrong. maybe there are any other programs to get this thing running. Its really puzzling because every laptop user need such tool badly, and i do not understand why is there so many monitor tools for cpu temperature and not a single good for hard drive which is far more important than cpu temperature, that rises and drops constantly as soon as your fans are fine???
I installed opensuse 11.3 to my laptop.Toshiba L505-13w satellite. core i5 2.27 ghz , 4gb ram, 1gb ati display.I can't measure cpu temperature. I tried "acpi -t" and sensors but nothing happened.I also tried system information widgets from plasma menu.Still I can't see my cpu temperature. Can anyone help me about this problem? I want to see my cpu temp.
I need a program that will limit download speed per connection. So that each download is limited to 100kbit/s for e,g. I tried trickled, it only limits whole application (and doesn't work with firefox). Also tried pyshaper, doesn't work. Is there such software?
openSUSE 11.4 64 bitsI have "sensors" package installed and configured with sensors-detect.The cpu temperature monitor plasmoid worked on kde 4.6.0 without problems but after installing 4.6.2 the monitor do not show any info.By running "sensor" from konsole I can see the temperature for both processors so it seems to be something related with the kde update
I'm using default KDE openSUSE 11.3 64 bit In windows I can see the temperature of my HP laptop (cpu I suppose). Is there a facility for viewing that in Linux / openSUSE. Maybe in KDE, maybe in Yast, wherever?
The reason is that my laptop's temperature and fan speed increases slowly when I convert large video files from one format to another and the computer eventually shuts down spontaneously when the temperature becomes critical. I'd like to watch this so I can prevent it. So I need the app.
cpu temp in Suse 11.2 is over than 55 C (sysem don not have any task) , but in windows 7 temp is 42 C in fedora is 46 C I have new fresh install of suse 11.2 my cpu is : AMD Phenom(tm) II X2 550 Processor what my system working warm ?
For windows servers, we use System Monitor to monitor everything on the server from disk utilization, current connections, application pools in IIS, CPU performance, bandwidth, and others. Is there something like that for opensuse? My server is running apache and I want to be able to monitor the linux server in a similar way that I do Windows Server 2003. Preferably I'd like an app that will run from a win32 workstation.
I'm searching for something like crontab. but the action should not be executed at a specific time but after a file or directory change. I'd like to run some scripts as soon a new file is in a predefined directory.
A daemon / shellscript would be really great. Does anybody know something like that?
My question is simple - is there any linux app or applet which is able to show (monitor) incoming and outgoing connections assuming it's a direct internet access? I was using a firewall on a system off Redmont which was able to show every connection, listening ports of services if some were opened etc.
