Subject: CPU temperature monitoring - Solved
Hello. I am running Mandriva linux and am having problems monitoring my CPU and other component's temperatures. First off, I would like to know if there are any GUI based ways to do this. If not, I tried installing lm_sensors, but when I type "sensors-detect" into 'Konsole Terminal' I get back: "Bash: sensors-detect: command not found". Can anyone help with this? By the way: If you can't tell; I'm new to linux. Solved, thanks for the help.

You probably don't have the location of the executable files for this tool in your PATH environment variable, so the shell cannot find it. If you can determine where it is, such as in /usr/local/bin, then add that directory to your PATH in your .bash_profile.

Sometimes real fast is almost as good as real time. Remember, Google is your friend!

lm-sensors is on my desktop, but I have no clue where .bash_profile is, nor do I have any clue how I would add the path to it. [Modified by: Slicksilver555 on May 11, 2009 04:44 AM]
