Yes, the Linux kernel cpufreq subsystem is supported but Lm_sensors is not. - Jan 13 2006

I also want CPU Info to support smaller kicker layouts. I don't know if other users share my thoughts but I would like to have a clean small app without having too many config options. So it would be cool to make the Applet more "intelligent" instead of adding option by option. Since I'm new to the KDE development it will take a while. If you have an idea how this can be implemented, contact me via jabber or email. Anyway its on my todo list and I'll look what I can do for the next release. - Jan 12 2006

Thanks for the compliments. I also thought about showing multiple thermal sensors in parallel. My descision for now was to let the user choose their primary sensor and show the others via the tooltip. This is a simple solution but saves kicker space and was easy to implement. :) - Jan 12 2006

Hm, I'm not using OpenSuSE 10 - sorry. Normally you have to enable the temperature ACPI kernel module (modprobe thermal). Then check whether /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/temperature is available - the applet checks that too. - Jan 11 2006

Since version 0.2 is out you can choose your sensor (if its supported by CPU Info and ther kernel module is loaded). The tooltip shows all found sources. Let me know if it works for you. - Jan 10 2006

I'll take a look into that this evening. I'm not very experienced with automake yet so it may take awhile. If anybody could help, please let me know. Thanks - Jan 04 2006

Thanks for your feedback. My Thinkpads have only one sensor (THM0) but I know that multiple sensors are possible. That issue is on my todo list for the next release. - Jan 03 2006

I'm using the applet on a 700Mhz PIII and on a 600Mhz PentiumM (lowest possible frequency) with no performance issues so far. The CPU time the applet eats is noticable if you lower the sample rate (polling freq) in the preferences - thus its configurable. I'm using a rate of 600ms. Let me know if you're encounter any problems. - Jan 03 2006
