The sensor is a monitor that displays the hardware temperature in graphical form and also supports the Ubuntu  Unity Indicator.

It can monitor:

• The temperature of the motherboard and CPU sensor (using lm-sensors)
• The temperature of the graphics card GPU (using XNVCtrl)
• The temperature of the hard disk (using hddtemp)
• Fan rotation speed (using lm-sensors)

  Installation:
  First install lm-sensors:

  sudo apt-get install lm-sensors

  Then detect the hardware sensor:

  sudo sensors-detect

  Run the following command to verify that it works:

  sensors

  It should display some information similar to the following:

  coretemp-isa-0000
  Adapter: ISA adapter
  Core 0: +46.0C (high = +76.0C, crit = +100.0C)
  coretemp-isa-0001
  Adapter: ISA adapter
  Core 1: +44.0C (high = +76.0C, crit = +100.0C)
  …

  Finally install psensor from ppa:
