Munin can display SMART statistics.

Packman has Munin RPMs

Hmmm interesting tool.  If I understand it right, it is a web based
monitor.. ie you use a web browser to view the output.  Thanks for the
tip on this one :-)

I've also been tinkering with SuperKaramba trying to add in a few bits
and bobs of info to a theme I'm using... I'm trying a line like this:

text x=170 y=135 sensor=program program="hddtemp /dev/sda | awk
'{print $4}'" align=right color=200,200,0 fontsize=10 font="nimbus
sans l" interval=10000

If I switch to a regular terminal window and run the bit in quotes, it
returns the operating temp of sda... exactly what i want to display in
SuperKaramba
---------------
hddtemp /dev/sda | awk '{print $4}'
33°C
-------------
but SuperKaramba is not co-operating and displaying the value... just
a blank spot.  I've tested with just text in this location, and it
shows fine, so it's not a silly error like trying to display outside
of boundaries.  In theory it shoudl work, and there are other themes
using similar constructs... Any tips or ideas on this one?

If I can get this so I can monitor hd temps, it'd be a perfect
compliment to using Munin as a weekly checkup tool.
