 kima - a kicker's applet for TDE.
 
 
This applet monitors various temperature, frequency and fan sources from
your kicker panel. 


Features:
=========

supported thermal sources:
 - the Linux ACPI Thermal Zone driver. The corresponding kernel module
   is called thermal.
 - the thermal sources of the Linux ACPI driver for the IBM ThinkPad
   laptops. The corresponding kernel module is called ibm-acpi.
 - the IBM Hard Drive Active Protection System (HDAPS) driver.
   The corresponding kernel module is called hdaps.
 - the Omnibook Configuration Tools & Patches.
   The corresponding kernel module is called omnibook.
 - the iBook G4 CPU and GPU thermal zones.
 - the thermal sensors available through hwmon (I2C, lm_sensors, ...).
 - the CPU thermal sensor of the i8k kernel driver for Dell Inspiron and
   Latitude notebooks.
 - the GPU thermal sensors of nvidia-settings.
   (provided by the nVidia GPU card driver tools, see  FAQ notes below)
 - the termal sensors provided by hddtemp daemon.


supported frequency sources:
 - the Linux kernel /proc/cpuinfo interface
 - the Linux kernel cpufreq subsystem


supported fan sources:
 - the fan sensors available through hwmon (I2C, lm_sensors, ...).
 - the fan sources of the Linux ACPI driver for the IBM ThinkPad laptops.
   The corresponding kernel module is called ibm-acpi.
 - the fan sources of the i8k kernel driver for Dell Inspiron and
   Latitude notebooks.


misc sources:
 - battery source that displays the state of charge of your batteries
   through libhal.
 - uptime source that displays the current system uptime.


misc:
 - cpufreqd control module to switch cpufreqd profiles via cpufreqd
   remote interface.
