After doing a bit of research (and reading FanSpeed's code) I have to withdraw the bug of the label color from FanSpeed and move it to pykde4. Sorry for that one and kind regards.

Thank you for developing FanSpeed! It's great, especially because it's the only if it's kind. However, having to go to Settings and change Maximum Speed every time I login makes using the plasmoid a bit annoying, and leaving the default settings is really useless. Likewise the RPM readout: it's unreadable on themes with white font. I really hope you will find time to fix these two issues, especially because there's no alternative plasmoid. Thanx again!

Nice Plasmoid. Just two bugs: 1. Current RPM's are seemingly printed on the gauge but use system's default foreground text color. On systems with a white-text-on-dark-background color scheme this results in unreadable RPM-printing. Please change to use a black or otherwise dark color always on a known-white background and not rely on system color scheme settings. :) 2. If possible I'd like to have my "max RPM" setting stored even if the system reports an amazingly high RPM. My system reports 65535 RPM on going to suspend which I have to change back to its usual (and one order of magnitude less) maximum value everytime. At least a checkbox like "do not adjust max. value to reported fan speed" would be nice here. Thanks for your work.

Hi I think that your plasmoid is great, but unhappylly, i can't use in my macbook (v2) because i haven't the string "fan", but 'Exhaust". In mac machines, we need use the module 'applesmc', that return this in "sensors" command: Quote:

There is no fan listed

Very useful. Thanks!

Hello, i can only choose fan4 and fan5 in plasmoid but there is no fan for CPU Fan as listed after "sensors" in terminal $ sensors k8temp-pci-00c3 Adapter: PCI adapter Core0 Temp: +54.0°C Core1 Temp: +57.0°C w83627ehf-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter VCore: +1.43 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +2.04 V) in1: +8.87 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +13.46 V) AVCC: +3.26 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) 3VCC: +3.25 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) in4: +1.62 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +2.04 V) in5: +1.83 V (min = +1.50 V, max = +1.52 V) ALARM in6: +5.89 V (min = +5.91 V, max = +6.48 V) ALARM VSB: +3.18 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) VBAT: +2.96 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) in9: +1.51 V (min = +2.04 V, max = +2.04 V) ALARM Case Fan: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 128) CPU Fan: 2721 RPM (min = 664 RPM, div = 8) Aux Fan: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 128) fan4: 0 RPM (min = 10546 RPM, div = 128) ALARM fan5: 0 RPM (min = 10546 RPM, div = 128) ALARM Sys Temp: +40.0°C (high = +127.0°C, hyst = +127.0°C) sensor = thermistor CPU Temp: +46.5°C (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +79.0°C) sensor = thermistor AUX Temp: -48.0°C (high = +127.0°C, hyst = +127.0°C) sensor = thermistor cpu0_vid: +1.350 V Please advice ;)

Here is the output for 'sensors': ~:/$ sudo sensors coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +38.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) coretemp-isa-0001 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 1: +38.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Still the plasmoid does not list any fans. Please advise.

I am not getting any response from hardware for any fan device. I have QT and PyQT installed. Do the dev's need to be installed, too? Please advise.

After installing the meter shows on the desktop like a charm and looks discrete and nice. But the meter stays at bottom and when I try to set fan I find lmsensors/it8712/fan1 which is correct, and I can set maximum speed, but still no luck. The output of >sensors for fan1 is correct. Does it matter if I rename "fan1" in sensors3.conf? I had it set for "CPUfan" a while but then changed back. According to comments above I checked the files in /home/xxxxxx/.kde4/share/apps/plasma/plasmoids/FanSpeed/contents/code unfortunately I a complete noob when it comes to hacking plain code so it doesn't mean much to me. If someone could give me some simple hands on tips I would be very greatful!
