Have used lm-sensors (on Ubuntu 18.10)
$ sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
Follow setup, say yes to scans, allow to add findings to /etc/modules
$ sudo /etc/init.d/kmod start
$ sensors
also have $ sudo apt-get install fancontrol
installed found fan through $ sudo pwmconfig
but not used
see:
- https://askubuntu.com/questions/53762/how-to-use-lm-sensors
- http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/cosmic/en/man5/sensors.conf.5.html
Currently just realtime in console $ watch sensors
Also want to install gnuplot to monitor realtime graphs
