On my recently installed Bionic pup 32 19.03, on bootup I get the message 'pmcputemp unfortunately does not work on your system'. Now I did see a startup configuration screen at some point but I have not managed to find this again.. Where is it? I am assuming this pmcputemp will be in there and I can remove it?

Re: pmcputemp? Startup configuration
open/root/Startup and move the pmcputemp file to /root/Startup/disabled
This is will stop pmcputemp from loading during the machine's startup. Everything in this directory /root/Startup, will be run during the boot routine

Re: pmcputemp? Startup configuration
If your computer does have a processor that supports temp sensing.
Try installing this one.
cpucurtemp

Make sure to get correct pets.
You need the sensor pet and the cpucurtemp pet.
Install the sensor pet first.
Then the cpucurtemp pet.
Have to restart X server or reboot to get it working.
Puts a temp display icon in the desktop tray.
The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected 
Re: pmcputemp? Startup configuration
Well after moving pmcpu to a [created by me] directory 'disabled' the package was obviously not active on restart so OK there, as for whether or not the cpucurtemp [with sensor pet] works remains to be seen...
Thanks again, consider this SOLVED
