I've recently installed Karmic on my new machine with the following specs;
Asus M4A785TD-V EVO Motherboard
AMD Athlon II X4 620 2.6GHz
Crucial 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3
Coolermaster Elite 330 Case
Western Digital WD5000AAKS 500GB
I'm looking to install some sort of temperature monitoring for my cpu and have had luck using either lm-sensors or acpi. With lm sensors, I've followed the various how to's on the forum and am still coming back with nothing. Trying to add hardware monitoring to panel brings up a 'no sensors found!' error, and x-sensors just starts up with a blank screen.
'sensors' in terminal spits back this -
Code:
lou@lou-quad:~$ sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
lou@lou-quad:~$
I've added the relevant lines into etc/modules as per the last question during configuration but still no joy. I've just run 'sensors-detect and had a gander at the output, and I'm wondering if its as simple as no one has written a driver for my mobo yet.
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?
Is there any way to monitor ambient temperature over the net?
For example I want to put one thermometer in the front of the cabinet (cold isle) and one in the back (hot isle) and monitor them over the internet, or have them report to a linux box.
So I would like to check out my cpu temperature in function of time. I've followed [URL]...gpu-en-ubuntu/ but unfortunately in the description it was for the old version of Ubuntu and despite having downloaded the program, I simply can't add it in the taskbar. I did in a terminal: sudo apt-get install sensors-applet. Then I installed a few remaining packets from synaptic. Now how do I run the program?
I have a notebook with AMD Athlon 64 QL-62 2 cores CPU. Normally the temperature is 50-52 Celsius in idle but with Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2 idle temp is 60 Celsius. /proc/cpuinfo shows both cores on 1GHz which is good but still temp is higher than usual. I tried to find solution using Google but I didn't find anything.
If I install Linux Mint 8 or Open Suse , temperature is 48 as windows mostly.If I install any other distro, temperature goes to 80-85 and fan is always On.Ive a laptop dell just bought it, dell studio 15, 4ghz ram dual core etc, a monster for linux but ive this problem, kinda annoying when you wanna have something silent and that doesnt become a furnace.
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded): * Chip `AMD Family 10h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9) No modules to load, skipping modules configuration. Unloading i2c-dev... OK
There is a debugging panel on my motherboard, and I think that that displays the CPU temperature, although I am not sure.
Trying to install Ubuntu from CD. I choose my language and hit Install and come to a black screen with the Ubuntu symbol glowing (loading everything I assume) and after a minute my screen fills up with messages saying my CPU Temperature is 99 (gets progressively higher) degrees. Is there something else I need to do before installing?
I have windows installed on my C drive and I'm planning on installing Linux on another blank drive. The Ubuntu version is the newest one (9.10) I think. I've got a Core i7, EVGA mobo, Nvidia 9600GT video card, and 6 gigs of memory. HDDs are all WD I believe, and the one I'm putting Linux on is 320 Gig.
In my system, the temperature of the CPU can be known from the file,/sys/bus/acpi/devices/LNXTHERM:00/ thermal_zone/temp . But I have found that not all systems have this file. Is there a generic method to get the temperature. Installing a package for this purpose won't be a solution as I'm building a simple gnome-shell extension. Something that comes along with the kernel would be perfect.
What could be other files that can possibly store temperature information, so that it would work on most atleast if not all? Any help like the file that stores temperature on your particular system only would also be highly appreciated.
For some reason,Ubuntu tends to use my CPU quite a lot.This cause my laptop to get really hot.Sometimes it even gets to the point when it automatically shuts down because of the CPU's temperature.Is there some sort of program or application to fix this?
I have installed the ubuntu 10.04 beta 2. I have notice that it has high temperature. I have try the "top" in terminal. There are no high usage of CPU and Memory. but still get high temperature. same in karmic 9.1. I have been using this ubuntu 10.04 beta2 fresh install just today. I did not do anything or install anything. It gets hot easily after few minutes. It was installed properly and no problem.
2nd problem is I try to reboot then i see the wifi signal and it detects my wifi and also my accesspoint. so I try to connect. I was connected to my accesspoint. My accesspoint is near my side. then I click firefox to test the connection. but no luck. cannot display page. maybe the internet was block even i was connected to my accesspoint. I try to check the signal then I saw (88%).
I am running Lucid x64 on an Gigabyte Mobo with an Intel E6500 CPU.I think this script pulls the temperature from /proc/acpi/thermal_zone. However, that directory is empty.I can get the cpu temp by using lm-sensors or by running this:
Code: cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/temp1_input Any ideas on how to get landscape-sysinfo to display the temperature
I'm struggling to get my Conky feed to show the CPU temperature. I'm working with a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. Currently my Conky display shows a CPU temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, and I know this isn't true because I built the computer myself and I'm definitely not that good! Also, the GNOME hardware applet contradicts this and gives a more realistic CPU temperature of 33 degrees Celsius. What I can do to rectify this and get this displayed in my Conky?
The science bit: I have done a sudo-sensors detect, and for CPU sensors it tells me: Code: Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors. Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no): y Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595... No VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors... No VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors... No AMD K8 thermal sensors... No AMD Family 10h thermal sensors... Success! (driver `k10temp') AMD Family 11h thermal sensors... No Intel Core family thermal sensor... No Intel Atom thermal sensor... No Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No VIA C7 thermal sensor... No VIA Nano thermal sensor... No
The end summary is as follows: Code: Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded): * Chip `AMD Family 10h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9) and here is the relevant snippet of my conkymain file:
I recently installed Ubuntu and wanted to remove the Windows XP installation is was dual booted with (I used Wubi to install Ubuntu), but I ended up just editing boot.ini to remove it from the boot menu and automatically boot in to Ubuntu. But then, Ubuntu started playing up and keeps on popping up with the Critical Temperature warning, saying it's 80-100C although it's the first time it's been turned on in 14 hours... But to add to my confusion, when I try to boot from ANY disk, it comes up with "NTLDR is missing" and a restart message.
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.
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 need a script that can log simultaneously the individual cpu core load and individual cpu core temp, like the "cpu core temp" software in window. write that script that can log these values for over a certain period of time with a fixed time of interval in between the two values?or is there any such tool in unix?
I got the same error while installing (even though install works fine!) during installation and after it. Its Critical temperature reached, 3564 C, shutting down. Celcium value is not made up, its actually among those lines (four-digit).
I had another problem with installation, but I managed to install using nomodeset setting. My pc is a rock laptop (which is actually supposed to work well with vista instead.. oh wel..).
Any suggestions? I have tried installing with acpi=off, but it doesnt make any difference during installation or after it..
Also another error I got during some of my tests was: "init: Failed to spawn rc-sysinit main proccess: unable to open console: input error
ConkyForecast is giving me the way wrong temperature (conky says it is 129 but weather.com says it is 54) it also added an A symbol before the degree symbol.
