Customzing Xfce (4)

Playing with Xfce : part 4, sensors plugin

Make sure to have a look to :

• Customizing Xfce (5) : desktop icon text color
• Customizing Xfce (3) : Battery plugin
• Customizing Xfce (2) : Shortcuts
• Customizing Xfce (1) : Panels

package : xfce4-sensors-plugin (needs hddtemp to work at full potential)

description : lets you monitor your hardware sensors, such as CPU temperature,hard drive temp, motherboard voltage, ...

overview in a few screen shots : 

NB : issues with hddtemp : 

if hddtemp is installed but the plugin notifies an issue, it might be due to permissions, fix them using the following:

sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp

Enjoy !!
