no sensors output about bashtop HOT 7 CLOSED

Same here! Switching on temp support in the menu also doesn't work. It's just stuck on "false".

from bashtop.

I encountered the same problem on Ubuntu 20.04 x86 64 bit. I wonder if the problem is a seccomp violation.

CPU Temperature monitoring not available in the snap but works when bashtop is installed from source.

I installed the snap and ran bashtop. I used the Options sub-menu and found that it was not possible to "check temp" option to true.

I resinstalled the snap in developer mode and examined the system log as described on the Snapcraft site (https://snapcraft.io/docs/debug-snaps). I excluded the ALLOWED and STATUS entries and was left with a single entry with a SECCOMP violation when the script tries to call sed.

Here is a tidied version of my checks.

I wonder if the SECCOMP log message indicates a wider problem which means that the sensors binary contained in the snap is not visible to the bashtop script. See - https://snapcraft.io/docs/debug-snaps#heading--seccomp.

I then removed the snap and installed bashtop from source and found that CPU temperature monitoring works.

Thanks in advance.

I noticed the snap connect ... commands on Snapcraft (https://snapcraft.io/install/bashtop/ubuntu). I removed the install of bashtop from source, reinstalled the snap and ran the listed snap connect commands. I then ran bashtop, it locked up on the "splash" page when checking memory.

I have reverted to the install from source.

Sorry to provide more bad news.

Just FYI: I've switched to using the bpytop snap where temps display works. (Bpytop is a python reimplementation of bashtop by the original developer. They recommend using that as they aren't actively developing bashtop any more.)

@Benedolt thanks for the update.
I have installed your snap of bpytop as you suggested. It worked straight away.
Thank you for your effort (and snaps).

@toikpi Glad it works for you! It's not my snap, though. That's all @kz6fittycent :)

That particular switch (temp) seems to glitch when first turning "on" and I don't know why. I noticed the same thing when running the .deb on an Ubuntu server I have at work. I typically have to switch the "tree" setting a couple of times, too. Given that I'm seeing the same issue between the .deb version and the snap, I've just chalked it up to the software itself.

That said, did you ensure that you have all the snap connections? If you don't, then that switch will never work -ever.
