Every time I try to configure this widget it crashes my Plasma desktop. Everything just disappears and then a few moments later it all lights up again and reappears.
Nice app. Really useful though I get the impression it needs an update.
I suppose I should clarify that I called this an app when actually it is a widget.
Yea, have same problems :\
Have you run sensors -c as root??
Where did you get the “libsensors4” package?
- Have you modified ‘/etc/sensors3.conf’?
- Is ‘/etc/sensors3.conf’ the version supplied with the correct “libsensors4” package?
Did you by chance attempt to use the “libsensors5” package?
"Have you run sensors -c as root?? "
localhost:/home/scott # sensors -c
sensors: option requires an argument – ‘c’
Try sensors -h' for more information localhost:/home/scott # sensors -h Usage: sensors [OPTION]... [CHIP]... -c, --config-file Specify a config file -h, --help Display this help text -s, --set Execute set’ statements (root only)
-f, --fahrenheit Show temperatures in degrees fahrenheit
-A, --no-adapter Do not show adapter for each chip
–bus-list Generate bus statements for sensors.conf
-u Raw output
-j Json output
-v, --version Display the program version
Use -' after -c’ to read the config file from stdin.
If no chips are specified, all chip info will be printed.
Example chip names:
lm78-i2c-0-2d -i2c-0-2d
lm78-i2c-0- -i2c-0-
lm78-i2c--2d -i2c--2d
lm78-i2c--* -i2c--*
lm78-isa-0290 -isa-0290
lm78-isa- -isa-
lm78-*
“Where did you get the “libsensors4” package?”
Main repository vendor openSUSE.
“Have you modified ‘/etc/sensors3.conf’?”
No
“Is ‘/etc/sensors3.conf’ the version supplied with the correct “libsensors4” package?”
I don’t know. How do I find out?
This is the installed file list for libsensors4 displayed in Yast.
| libsensors4 - Hardware health monitoring library |

/etc/sensors.d
/etc/sensors3.conf
/usr/lib64/libsensors.so.4

"Did you by chance attempt to use the “libsensors5” package? "
No. Should I install it?
Thanks to Kde forums for finding this fix: https://old.reddit.com/r/kdeneon/comments/gkyuij/attempting_to_configure_thermal_monitor_widget.
I had seen this before but thanks to the fact that I had uninstalled the widget at the time the last few directories in the location were missing. Reinstall it and rotfl!.
“gogalthorp” meant, either execute “sensors -c /etc/sensors3.conf” from the user “root” …
- But, with a “normal” user, it is also OK and, simply “sensors” with or without system privileges is also OK …
OK
OK
Either, download the Package and compare the installed file against the file in the package or, rename the installed file and then forcibly reinstall the package and then, compare the original file with the newly installed file.
Looks OK.
No.
There was this Tumbleweed thread in this Forum: <https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/538729-Thermal-monitor-plasmoid>.
BTW, were you referring to the following Plasmoid? <https://store.kde.org/p/998915/>
That Tumbleweed post is me with old profile. I have moved back to Leap. I don’t remember I ever got that fixed.
That is the same plasmoid yes.
