sjaglin Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 (edited) Hi there, Still tweaking with my Asus 9999td (NV40 fx6800 128Mb) I want to know a couple of things : 1- I would like to record the temperature as I am playing to make a decision on the settings balancing risk and gain... I tried as follow: touch nvtry nvclock -i >>nvtry I thought this would give record and "pile" all the entries but it doesn't. I get a clean entry and the rest seems to be a mixture of ascii and text ! Probably a basic linux mistake, can anyone help? 2- nvclock gives me a temperature reading by accessing a sensor. Can this sensor reading be integrated in my gkrellm? 3- My system is a Ideq 210v from biostar. gkrellm gives me 3 temperature sensors and my Bios only shows one! I understand linux does have better access to the hardware but how can I find out which is which? One is CPU but what about the 2 others? Toaster? Iron? Thanks for your help, I m now gonna board my loft and I ll be back...

sjaglin Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Here is the output, but I want a history of temps during the game.

Steve Scrimpshire Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Can you possibly show us a screenshot of what the output in your file looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjaglin Posted March 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Here is the snapshot for nvclock -i (I did an alias for nvi = nvclock -i) I think it should be possible to insert in gkrellm's plugin fmonitor a command a bit like nvclock -i | grep temp >a file but so far that does not work. Any suggestion? Sorry here it is after : [stephane@linux-box ~]$ watch nvclock -i >>nvtry I get the file on the snapshot... Stef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scrimpshire Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 I don't know about a gkrellm plugin, but those look like shell escape characters. Are you creating this file from a script? If so, can you post the script? If not, what terminal emulator are you using? Have you tried a different one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjaglin Posted March 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 (edited) Hi I don t use a script but a Console, so far i ve tried Konsole and RXvt. Cheers! SOLVED! I was making the error of not putting my commands between two [ ' ] when running the command watch. watch -n 5 -d 'nvclock -i| grep temp>> nvtemp' records every 5 seconds the board and GPU temperature and output them as a stack in a file called nvtemp! Really great, thnks to all for your help! Stef Edited March 10, 2006 by sjaglin@yahoo.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
