Check your PC temperature

In this article I will explain how to install lm-sensors and the related applets to monitor the temperatures of your PC (hard disk, cpu etc …).

The installation begins by installing lm-sensors:

# apt-get install lm-sensors

Once this is done, we proceed to install the applets:

# apt-get install sensors-applet

Once the sensors-applet installation is complete, the software will ask you some questions: start on boot (yes/no) I recommend selecting yes

Interface to listen on:
127.0.0.1

leave it as it is.

Port to listen on:
7634

here too leave as is.

Once the installation of sensors-applet is complete proceed to the configuration of the sensors:

# sensors-detect

all the questions that will be asked answer yes (it is used to search for sensors). to the question:

To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules:

#—-cut here—-
# Chip drivers
coretemp
#—-cut here—-

If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will
contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones!

Do you want to add these lines automatically to /etc/modules? (yes/NO)

I recommend answering YES.

We are done. Now on the top panel of gnome select add to panel and from the list select Hardware sensors monitor.
