G'day 01micko,

A little off-topic maybe, but I'm curious why this interesting little utility was not in Slacko (or is it and I couldn't/can't find it)?

I have two computers using high operating temperature CPUs so like to watch how often they get over 70C and to see the background colour change from green to yellow/amber. I assume it would get to red if I find and run the "right" software.

Tempicon 0.09

01micko

Thanks for this latest version. With my 6 year old hardware I found that retaining lm_sensors displays more info. (i.e. max allowable CPU temp)

@micko I recently made an update to sit:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=76431
It should work well with tempicon now that it just monitors each icon to see if it is modified via inotify and directly launches the left and right click apps (no need for a monitor loop any more).

Let me know if you are interested in using it. I think I have simplified it to the maximum extent possible (<20 lines of code) but would like some feedback. (for instance, would it make more sense to fork the click actions, so that icons continue to update while the click event is open?)
Check out my [url=https://github.com/technosaurus]github repositories[/url]. I may eventually get around to updating my [url=http://bashismal.blogspot.com]blogspot[/url].

sit "$THEICON" "$TOOLTIP" "$LCLICK" "$RCLICK"

But of course the function 'infofunc' doesn't work (see edit), have to create a separate script for sit to call.

Playing with this exposed a bug in tempicon so I'll fix that soon, it's in the main loop.

Thanks

EDIT: working now

Version 0.10 is out.

critical bugfix to kill the main loop if you quit the program

There's one Q I will answer

Not off topic at all, the reason is the stability. I wasn't quite happy with it, now I m a little more happy. V 0.06 is currently in the Slacko repo. This version will be taking it's place.

I'm hoping this one will build and run on the raspi platform. Since it is passively cooled temperature stats will be interesting.

Tempicon working great in Saluki 23 with new Xfce desktop

#50 Post by Pete22 »

01micko

Thank you for a great program.
I wanted you to know that it works well with Saluki 23 that has the latest xfce desktop and panel.

I was wandering. Is there a way to change temp to Fahrenheit?

Pete.

version 0.16 on lighthouse

#54 Post by Pete22 »

01micko:

tempicon works fairly well in lighthouse which is related to slacko.

When Installed, this version starts working without further tweaking.
It even installs to the panel. However, the icon does not show.
I can tell its there because it leaves a space between icons.
When I click on the space it opens tempicon.

On second thought, this may not be tempicon's problem.
I want to use xfce windows manager, which works on the live CD.
But lighthouse refuses to this in a frugal install. It will only work with Openbox.

So I am not sure where the problem lies.

I will send a message to Lhp folks as well.

I have uploaded a 64 bit version. You will need that one for LHP-64. (unless of course you compiled it yourself). It should work in xfce as long as the system tray module is loaded and working, sorry I can't recall the name of it.

See the main post.

EDIT: works in Slackbones with lxpanel

Runs better now, couple of bugs fixed and some bloat removed.

Only 32 bit for now, maybe 64 tomorrow.

01micko. Have you tested tempicon-0.19 pet with jwm-876 ?
Could newest jwm development version be the reason of this behavior. Laptop as toaster invention I mean.

Fixed at my end, though the digits will read smaller, sorry but the icons must be square now unless Joe has an easy fix.
