Hi all
I have some problems with System-monitor desklet.

Glx-dock (OpenGL) 2.3.0~2, Archlinux, Openbox standalone+Cairo-comp-mgr, ati open-source with gallium 3d.
I wanna use that desklet just for Cpu temp and fan speed monitoring.
1) cpu temp doesn't get recognized (always 0). Is there a way I can try to change the device monitored? (I think that's the problem, don't ask me why...)
2) I don't need cpu load to be displayed (I use conky for that), but if I disable it, gauge visualization stop working (desklet freezes). Graph works flawlessy, but I don't like it.
3) Is there a way to monitor separately my 4 cores? I've seen that both load and temp are monitored in a single voice.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

About the CPU temp and fan speed monitoring: Can you post the output of this command:
sensors

Do you rely on some external tool to get the values, or do you query directly device files under /dev?

The sensors4 library is used to get these values.
Can you check if there was any problem with the compilation of the System-Monitor applet?

Can you uncomment lines 197 and 355 in this file: cairo-dock-plug-ins/System-Monitor/src/applet-sensors.c and post the output of
cairo-dock |grep CPU

Modified the sources, rebuilded, installed, launched and grepped: nothing printed.
Setting log level to debug, I just obtain:
cairo-dock -o -l debug | grep CPU
sysmonitor : 4 CPU/core(s) found

and
cairo-dock -o -l debug | grep cpu
debug : (/home/javier/dati/abs/cairo/cairo-dock-plug-ins/src/cairo-dock-plugins-2.3.0~2/System-Monitor/src/applet-cpusage.c:_get_cpu_info:111)

I don't know for your problem (maybe adding more traces could help), but about this:
I've seen that both load and temp are monitored in a single voice.

yep, the CPU load is the mean of the N cores. and temperature is the max of the N cores.

which traces do you need?

I'm not really sure, I'll look at the code to see where we should pass.

ok, here is the prints you can add in the source code:

applet-monitor.c
l.57
  1. ifdef HAVE_SENSORS

+ g_print ("sensors: %d; %d\n", myConfig.bShowCpuTemp, myConfig.bShowFanSpeed);


applet-sensors.c
uncomment l.197

l.125
+ g_print ("sensors CPU temp\n", func);

l.116
+ g_print ("sensors chip\n", func);

l.100
+ g_print ("%s()\n", func);

then please post the outputs of the terminal.

Hi i have got exactly the same Problem. CPU usage ect. will be displayed but cpu temperature and fanspeed isn't avaiable! Is there a workaround?

me too, but my fault is heavier, I'm the OP
I'm really sorry 'cause i'm such late.
I modified the sources as you asked for, but what I obtain it's just this loop
sensors: 1; 1
sensors: cd_sysmonitor_get_sensors_data()
sensors: chip
sensors: 1; 1
sensors: cd_sysmonitor_get_sensors_data()
sensors: chip
sensors: 1; 1
sensors: cd_sysmonitor_get_sensors_data()
sensors: chip
sensors: 1; 1
sensors: cd_sysmonitor_get_sensors_data()
sensors: chip
.........
.......
...

ok, you have the line with "chip" but not the next one with "CPU temp"
so the problem is between the lines 116 and 125
I'll see if we can add more prints to have more details.

I tracked a bug that prevented me to have the temp when one of the fan's value was 0.
Does your means that you had the same bug, and this thread could be marked as solved ?
