Re: pmcputemp crashes JWM in Bionic 32

I cannot understand why an application that monitors the temperature sensor in my system needs/uses/reports 616MiB of virtual memory. Clearly I don't understand something - but what?

Re: CPU temperature monitoring

I don't use pmcputemp, because there's already:

Right-click the LxQt-panel -> Manage Widgets -> + -> Sensors

It supports multiple sensor readings, through libsensors, just like the sensors command.
