(At the end of the post is the steps I used to setup Glances on Mint and Ubuntu)



This is with full lm-sensors and Nvidia information:



This is without lm-sensors and Nvidia (full) information



STEPS I USED TO INSTALL ON LINUX MINT AND UBUNTU

- INSTALL LM-SENSORS
- DETECT SENSORS
- GET REQUIRED HEADERS
- INSTALL PYTHON SETUPTOOLS
- INSTALL PIP
- INSTALL PIP WHEEL
- INSTALL GLANCES
MENU:

PRESS F FOR SENSORS VIEW
PRESS 2 FOR SIDE BAR

Awesome, thanks Chris. I’ll check this out. I’m using the built in monitor plus nmon and psensor currently. I think you had mentioned nmon previously. It was the only way I could see CPU clock speeds.

I’m always interested in better monitoring apps!

Yeah no problem, if people say they find stuff useful then I'll keep posting, if not I'll just keep all these goodies to myself.

I have been using nmon (for cpu freq), nvidia-smi (for gpu info), and psensor (for cpu/gpu/hd utilisation and temps).

But I'm now moving all my systems back into a server rack (36U) so I want to keep a close eye on cpu/gpu temps and any possible throttling, and obviously doing that via a single application is much easier/better.

Also the option that glances offers of being able to monitor everything via a webpage or app looks excellent; not that I have actually tested any of these just yet.
