By the look of the code ... it is looking for integer and character ... %d %c format ...

Right, just like the wiki says I take it everything works fine for you CrashX?

[rodalpho]

Tried

Code:

<advancedsettings>
<gputempcommand>echo "$(nvidia-settings -tq gpuCoreTemp) C"</gputempcommand>
<cputempcommand>echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }') C"</cputempcommand>
</advancedsettings>

Which also didn't work for either CPU or GPU, just shows a "?" in XBMC. The commands do return what looks to be proper output.

Code:

rodalpho@fiddler:~$ echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }') C"
29.50 C
rodalpho@fiddler:~$ echo "$(nvidia-settings -tq gpuCoreTemp) C"
37 C

Edit: Also tried

Code:

rodalpho@fiddler:~$ echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }' |awk '{printf("%d\n",$1 + 0.5);}') C"
44 C

which returns an integer with no decimal, and it didn't work either. Just get question marks for both CPU and GPU temps.

Edit2: OK, after updating to 17366, the following advancedsettings.xml actually works, however in XBMC the numbers are converted to fahrenheit! They show up as 104F and 88F for GPU and CPU, respectively, when I prefer celsius. When advancedsettings.xml is removed, I'm back to question marks. Very very weird.

Code:

<advancedsettings>
<gputempcommand>echo "$(nvidia-settings -tq gpuCoreTemp) C"</gputempcommand>
<cputempcommand>echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }' |awk '{printf("%d\n",$1 + 0.5);}') C"</cputempcommand>
</advancedsettings>

What is displayed in the GUI is determined by the region you have set.

[rodalpho]

Fair enough. Just weird that it shows F after having specified C in the config file.

[althekiller]

You aren't specifying the display scale, you're specifying the scale of the input. All temperatures in XBMC are displayed on the same scale based on the region setting. This is how it has been for years.

[CrashX]

I tested it as well and all worked fine.

Hi! Will try to ask this question here, and hope you guys can help me.

I got a GIGABYTE MA78GM-S2H, and I my temp are also not correct displayed.

What do I have to install on my Ubuntu 8.10 to make it work?

A little guide, and I would be very happy.

Thanks

EDIT: I followed the guide http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/iwizard/1
but when I then try "sensors" only this is displayed, and that cant be right..

Core0 Temp: +23.0°C
Core0 Temp: +20.0°C

Thanks for the guide, much appreciated! Will be following it shortly

[dafart]

I can hereby confirm that

Code:

<advancedsettings>
<gputempcommand>echo "$(nvidia-settings -tq gpuCoreTemp) C"</gputempcommand>
<cputempcommand>echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }' |awk '{printf("%d\n",$1 + 0.5);}') C"</cputempcommand>
</advancedsettings>

shows correct gpu temp of my nvidia card. (thanks rodalpho)

CPU temp info does not display correctly though.
lm_sensors is installed correctly and the code added to advencedsettings.xml gives this output when entered in a terminal:

Code:

echo "$(sensors -u | grep "temp2_input"| awk '{print $2 }') C"
4.00
38.00 C

Could it be due to the fact that my cpu has 2 cores that it doesn know what to put?

Hopefully someone can shed a light on this.

Cheers, dafart

The code expects an integer. Hack off the ".00" and it should be fine.
