Description Lastique 2019-04-27 18:07:35 UTC

SUMMARY
After reboot, lm-sensor readings, such as CPU temperatures, are displayed as OFF. At the same time, the "sensors" command displays temperatures as expected.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add Thermal Monitor widget on the horizontal panel.
2. In the widget options, add lm-sensor sources, lmsensors/coretemp-isa-0000/Package_id_0, lmsensors/coretemp-isa-0000/Core_0, etc.
3. Reboot.

OBSERVED RESULT
After reboot, the added sensors are displayed as OFF. The "sensors" command show expected temperatures.

Sometimes, if I open the widget options, change one of the sensors to something else, then change back, and click Apply, the sensors start displaying valid readings.

EXPECTED RESULT
Sensor readings should be displayed correctly.

We don't have a thermal monitor widget.

Can you confirm the name please.

Comment 2 Lastique 2019-04-28 03:30:58 UTC

The name is "Thermal Monitor", and apparently it's not a built-in widget of Plasma and it was installed from elsewhere, probably from here: https://store.kde.org/p/998915. Sorry for the confusion.
