support temp sensor

This would be nice, however on my system, the module coretemp is not auto-loaded, and also this path provided only applies to Core processors.

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone does not exist here, but I'm assuming the script *only* looks there because it's a standardized location for ACPI reporting, rather than chipset-specific like coretemp (or any other lm-sensors driver for that matter).

Also, I have provided by the ACPI driver for my motherboard (asus_atk0110) thermal sensors visible in:

/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:03/ATK0110:00/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_input

Again, a driver-specific location.

Although all these seem visible through a common path:
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/temp1_input (where X is the specific device, I have 0=asus_atk0110, 1=coretemp.0 2=coretemp.1, for the two cores)

Will be released in 3.20.

This bug was fixed in the package byobu - 3.20-0ubuntu1

Thanks. I've updated to 3.20 and toggled the CPU temperature notification on. It reports 35 degrees C. Output from "$ sensors":

atk0110-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
Vcore Voltage: +1.14 V (min = +0.85 V, max = +1.60 V)
 +3.3 Voltage: +3.30 V (min = +2.97 V, max = +3.63 V)
 +5 Voltage: +5.09 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.50 V)
 +12 Voltage: +12.04 V (min = +10.20 V, max = +13.80 V)
CPU FAN Speed: 1180 RPM (min = 600 RPM)
CHASSIS FAN Speed: 0 RPM (min = 800 RPM)
CPU Temperature: +35.0°C (high = +60.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
MB Temperature: +39.0°C (high = +45.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +47.0°C (high = +74.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1: +43.0°C (high = +74.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0002
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 2: +45.0°C (high = +74.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0003
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 3: +45.0°C (high = +74.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

So byobu is picking up the "CPU temperature" output. I have no idea why this output (35 degrees C) is so different from the temperature of each core, but of course this is not a byobu-related issue.

SabreWolfy,

They will almost always be different: (I believe) one is what is reported by sensors built-in to the motherboard, the other is what's reported by on-chip sensors built into the CPU.

(My situation is reversed, the coretemps report lower than the mobo's CPU temp. I'm making an educated guess that I have a better CPU fan than you, or you have better ventilation *underneath* the motherboard than I.)

Dustin, Thank you for updating this!

Aaron,

Thanks for the information. The text I pasted in my previous post shows that my sensors reports a CPU temperature, a MB (motherboard I presume) temperature and core temperatures. Are you saying there is a "CPU motherboard" value and a "motherboard" value?

byobu is picking up the one called "CPU", which is fine I think. I have confirmed that this values DOES change over time, so sensors is reporting something dynamic. In my experience, some sensors temperatures report some arbitrary fixed temperature value which never changes.

Also my thanks to Dustin for adding this :)
