Hardware Discovery & Monitoring

  • Conky System Monitor … install/configure via command line & configuration file coding
    I use Conky to monitor: system temperatures via lm-sensors; CPU, RAM & HDD usage; network stats & usage; etc..

dmidecode seems to be most useful when use with the type keywords. To do that, I use the following command where “Keyword” is replaced by the below keywords:

 sudo dmidecode -t Keyword
Keyword Types
bios 0, 13
system 1, 12, 15, 23, 32
baseboard 2, 10, 41
chassis 3
processor 4
memory 5, 6, 16, 17
cache 7
connector 8
slot 9
