I wrote my own because I did not like what any of them did. It is
essentially simple: using the libsensors-dev you get all the data that
gets collected. I display the data with Qt in a wharf of fvwm that fits
only the 3 most important datapoints. Left click shows it all in a
frame. Then if a threshold is reached I sound an alarm with NAS (because
I did not have a pc speaker for a while). I can test only the fan,
stopping that for a moment and that works. I could if I wanted to shut
down the system then. I also collect the CPUtemp in a db and display the
history of that with Qt. E.g. to show the difference with a different
casefan I bought. FWIW my CPU temp right now is 38.975 degrees. That
goes up to about 45 if I run a 3 hour mozilla compile and it gets hot
here in Oaxaca...
