Until the release 1.1.2, Psensor is using hddtemp
by default to
+retrieve the temperature of the disks.
+
If hddtemp
is installed but no disk temperature is reported, check
+that the daemon is running by using for example the command ps
+-eaf|grep hddtemp
.
+It should output something like:
-
Depending on the Linux distribution, the installation of the +hddtemp+
-package does not enable the hddtemp daemon automaticaly.
-
-In this case, edit the file +/etc/default/hddtemp+ and set
-+RUN_DAEMON+ to +"true"+ like in the following example:
+
root 1433 1 0 May28 ? 00:00:21 /usr/sbin/hddtemp -d -l 127.0.0.1 -p 7634 -s | /dev/sdb
-
# hddtemp network daemon switch. If set to true, hddtemp will listen
-# for incoming connections.
-RUN_DAEMON="true"
+
Depending on the Linux distribution, the installation of the hddtemp
+package does not enable the hddtemp daemon automaticaly.
+
In this case, edit the file /etc/default/hddtemp
and set
+RUN_DAEMON
to "true"
. After edition, it should contain the
+following line:
-
For Debian/Ubuntu, you can use
+
RUN_DAEMON="true"
-
+
For Debian/Ubuntu, you can use at root:
-
and reply +yes+ when asked whether hddtemp daemon must be
-run during the startup.
