cputemp module does not work for alternate cpus #16

Closed campital closed 4 years ago

campital commented 4 years ago

In the "cputemp" module, it looks for a line containing "Temp1" in the output of sensors. On my AMD CPU, the line starts with "Tdie". Here is the output of sensors for me: k10temp-pci-00c3 Adapter: PCI adapter Vcore: 1.30 V Vsoc: 838.00 mV Tdie: +38.9°C Tctl: +38.9°C Icore: 20.00 A Isoc: 5.25 A

Because the output of sensors varies so much between hardware (depending on cpu type, drivers installed, etc.), I'm hesitant to make changes to the default script, as while it might fix the problem for you, it could break the script for someone else.

The best solution for you would be to copy the cputemp script (located in /usr/share/dwmbar/modules to ~/.config/dwmbar/modules/custom, where it will override the default and not be affected by any updates (which, to be honest, aren't likely). From there, you can edit it to grep for Tdie instead.
