xfce4-sensors-plugin

[MOrava]

Please provide a package for:

xfce4-sensors-plugin
http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-sensors-plugin
xfce4 panel plug-in to display output from lm_sensors in the xfce panel
ver. 0.10.99.6 (for xfce 4.6 series included in SalixOS ver. 13.37), 64-bit

Thank you. The package was present in earlier SalixOS version however
is missing in 13.37...

You can install it with sourcery/slapt-src.

libsensors doesn't put the temp and fan data into /proc/acpi anymore.
data is now at /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1

xfce4-sensors-plugin and xfce4-sensors are effectively blind.

Thank you for the reply.
I could already read the relevant temps with sensors and hddtepm in console.
The asus_atk0110 and k10temp drivers are automatically loaded by Salix init without any intervention on my side as shown by lsmod.

What doesn't work is xfce4-sensors-plugin and xfce4-sensors.

/usr/doc/xfce4-sensors-plugin-1.2.5/TODO file says (among other things):
"
- switch to sysfs completely for everything?
"

Well, it woulld be good if they do.
There is no init script for hddtemp, but even when I start

Code: Select all

hddtemp -d /dev/sda

xfce4-sensors-plugin and xfce4-sensors don't see the temp data. Data is ready at /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1, but xfce plugin and app look at empty /proc/acpi.
