[SOLVED] Display Sensors-applet after download from Synaptic

[Dumpy Dumpster]

I feel a bit stupid because I have managed this before, but cannot work out how I did it! My previous thread does not help me. I have had to reinstall Hardy.
I have installed 'sensors-applet' and libsensors-applet-plugin 0' from Synaptic, I have tried 'sudo apt-get install sensors-applet' only to be told it is all there and the latest version. Also I have tried 'sudo /usr/sbin/sensors-detect. But I cannot find it to display on my lower panel. Where is it and how to display, please?
Thanks - it can't be far away!

You run sudo sensors-detect
If all goes well it will set up the sensors.

Then right click add to panel and IIRC it's called Hardware Sensors.

right click and select add to panel. find hardware sensors

Thanks philinux and sharks. Ran 'sudo sensors-detect',answered 'yes' to all, tried to 'Add to Panel' but alas it came up 'No sensors found'! I have tried 'sudo get-apt install libsensors-applet-plugin0' but that came up with 'Command not found'
Sorry more help needed!

The packet from synaptic is 'sensors-applet'.
Install that, then have another look in the "add to panel" dialog!

Install lm-sensors from Synaptic, as well as sensors-applet.

In a terminal, enter sensors and see what appears.

You should be able to add the applet to a panel as already suggested...

'Add to Panel' and then find 'Hardware Sensors Monitor'.

Thank you silkstone, it was the lm-sensors (now called ksensors it seems!) that was missing. Pity it was not 'bundled' with 'sensors-applet' and 'libsensors-applet-plugin0', it would have saved you all some trouble.
