lm-sensors, alternative Linux à HWiNFO
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
lm-sensors is a solid backend for data collection but not a full replacement for HWiNFO. It provides accurate, low-level sensor readings via the kernel, which is great for scripting and automation. However, it lacks a native GUI, detailed hardware identification, and built-in logging. If you are comfortable with the terminal and use tools like GKrellM or custom scripts for visualization, it works well. For users who want a single, polished app with historical graphs and deep component details out of the box, lm-sensors alone is insufficient and requires significant additional setup.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil
- Real-time monitoring of CPU, GPU, and drive temperatures
- Reading of voltage and power consumption metrics
- Access to fan speed data
- Non-intrusive background operation via kernel drivers
Ce qui change
- No graphical user interface; command-line only
- Lacks detailed hardware profiling and component identification features
- No built-in data logging or historical analysis capabilities
- Fan control is limited and chip-dependent, not universal
- Requires manual configuration and scripting for advanced usage
Ouvrir vos fichiers HWiNFO
lm-sensors does not open or export files in the format used by HWiNFO. It outputs plain text to the terminal or can be redirected to files via shell commands. There is no direct import mechanism for HWiNFO logs or configuration files.
Passer de HWiNFO à lm-sensors, étape par étape
- Install lm-sensors from your distribution's package manager
- Run sensors-detect to identify and enable supported hardware sensors
- Verify output by running the sensors command in the terminal
- Configure a GUI tool like GKrellM or Konsole to display the data visually
- Set up a cron job or systemd timer to log sensor data to a file if historical analysis is needed

Can lm-sensors control fan speeds directly?
It can read fan speeds, but control is limited. It supports fan control on some specific chips via the kernel, but for robust control, you typically need additional tools like fancontrol or PWM utilities.
Does it work with all hardware?
It supports most modern motherboards and common hardware via the Linux kernel's hwmon subsystem. However, support varies by chipset, and some proprietary or very new hardware may not be fully supported.
Is it safe to run in the background?
Yes, it is designed to be lightweight and non-intrusive. It reads data from kernel drivers without imposing significant CPU load, making it suitable for continuous background monitoring.
