As long as lm_sensors supports your sensor chipset you should have plenty of options. Check the list of applications on http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/UsefulLinks I don't do any remote monitoring but I suppose you could use also use lm_sensors + grep to do your own alert script. The basic 'sensors' output on my machine looks like this: abituguru3-isa-00e0 Adapter: ISA adapter CPU Core: +1.44 V (min +0.00 V, max +1.65 V) DDR2: +2.10 V (min +1.70 V, max +2.50 V) DDR2 VTT: +1.05 V (min +0.85 V, max +1.25 V) CPU VTT: +2.42 V (min +1.90 V, max +2.90 V) NB 1.2V: +1.47 V (min +1.15 V, max +1.75 V) SB 1.5V: +1.59 V (min +1.25 V, max +1.85 V) HyperTransport: +1.27 V (min +1.00 V, max +1.50 V) ATX +12V (24-Pin): +12.42 V (min +9.60 V, max +14.40 V) ATX +12V (4-pin): +12.54 V (min +9.60 V, max +14.40 V) ATX +5V: +5.04 V (min +3.99 V, max +6.00 V) ATX +3.3V: +3.38 V (min +2.64 V, max +3.94 V) ATX 5VSB: +5.22 V (min +3.99 V, max +6.00 V) CPU: +25°C (high = +75°C, crit = +85°C) System: +35°C (high = +55°C, crit = +65°C) PWM Phase1: +56°C (high = +125°C, crit = +135°C) PWM Phase2: +56°C (high = +125°C, crit = +135°C) PWM Phase3: +56°C (high = +125°C, crit = +135°C) PWM Phase4: +54°C (high = +125°C, crit = +135°C) PWM Phase5: +52°C (high = +125°C, crit = +135°C) CPU FAN: 2760 RPM (min 300 RPM) SYS FAN: 1500 RPM (min 300 RPM) AUX1 FAN: 1380 RPM (min 300 RPM) AUX2 FAN: 0 RPM (min 300 RPM) AUX3 FAN: 0 RPM (min 300 RPM)
