xfce4-sensors-plugin

Hellos,

Probably a very lame question but...

I'm looking to enable a CPU temperature monitor before trying to use the scripts to control the fan. I've installed the xfce4-sensors-plugin but there doesn't seem to be a way to enable them. I supose the panel it's mentinoned everywhere is the bottom bar, right? On Gnome is just a matter of right click and add to panel, but not on AAO Linpus. Where should I add it?

I've tried the "Panel Manager" (Gestore dei Panelli on the Italian version), but it just, and only, allows to add a new panel... :?: :?: :?:

I tried today to install lm-sensors and xfce4-sensors-plugins. When install was finished, I could see and select the plugin as usual (without problems). The next step was to open a terminal and configure sensors launching the command

Code:

$ sudo sensors-detect

but the script can't found any sensor compatible with the actually managed chipsets on the project, so the most I can see is the title Sensors in the place where I put the xfce plugin. Maybe soon our chipset will be supported. I tried too HD temperature sensor hddtemp which run ok, at least you can check your internal HDD temperature by launching:

Code:

$ hddtemp /dev/sda

Usually I'd rather to avoid compile any package, but if there is no alternative...
Anyway, thanks, I'll check and try soon
