X Hardware Monitor

Purpose:

monitor hardware indicators for temperature, voltage, fan speed etc... of a running system with a graphical panel. The default configuration allows to monitor up to 3 temperatures, 3 fan speeds and 6 voltages. This tool is more particularly adequate for bi-processor systems.

Why:

I needed a tool to monitor all the numerous indicators of my Abit BP6 in an eye catch.

Requirements:

lmsensors (only to run it), Xlib, XPM.

Where:

C sources are in this tar-gzip archive: hardmon 1.0.

The future:

• more config files for different motherboards
• implement CPUs and system load indicators, with history graphs
