Install and configure monitoring tool in Ubuntu 18.04

Worked well on Ubuntu 18.04

Hello there! I want see temperature from my cpu, gpu and hard drive. How can I do this? Is there an extension that can do this and will not drop the graphics subsystem every couple of minutes? I found it! Go ahead!

Installing dependencies

Ubuntu, Debian and other distros with apt-get:

sudo apt-get install lm-sensors

Then run sensors-detect as root as one time detection process (use sudo before this command):

sudo sensors-detect

Choose yes or no depends on what you wish. I pressed several times Enter and all worked right.

Next, install this (need to enable extension!):

sudo apt-get install chrome-gnome-shell

For now you can install amazing extension from here (be ware that you will need to register on this site to allow installation by taping on button):

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/841/freon/

As needed you can change parameters as you like:

If you haven`t install nvidia-drivers or lm-sensors then you can see only hard drive temperature! So install them first.

Below you can see how this extension looks like:

It`s exactly what I want. Nice) If you want to see similar temperature indicators (hard drive, average CPU and GPU), select the same indicators:

Small notice: PECI Agent 0 — it is average temperature from all CPU cores. If you don`t need many indicators from each core, select him — that`s a really good choice.

Thanks for your attention!
