## Monitoring
### Sensors
The `lm_sensors` package shows temperatures, fan pwm and other sensors for your CPU, GPU and motherboard.
Run `$ sensors` to get the output.
#### Support for motherboard ITE LPC chips
Support for this type of chip does not come built in to `lm_sensors`.
In the AUR the package `it87-dkms-git` provides a kernel module with support for a variety of ITE chips. It pulls from [this](https://github.com/frankcrawford/it87) git repo. You can find a list of supported chips there. See [this issue on lm_sensors git repo](https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/issues/134) for background info.
The kernel driver can be automatically loaded on boot by putting `it87` into `/etc/modules-load.d/(filename).conf`
The option `acpi_enforce_resources=lax` also needs to be added to `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT` in `/etc/default/grub` or your bootloader equivalent.
### CoreFreq
[CoreFreq](https://github.com/cyring/CoreFreq) can display a lot of information about the CPU and the memory controller.
To run, the systemd service `corefreqd` needs to be enabled.
CoreFreq also depends on a kernel driver. Simply put `corefreqk` into `/etc/modules-load.d/(filename).conf` to load it automatically on boot.
Access the TUI using `$ corefreq-cli`
A few interesting views:
`Shift + C` shows per thread frequency, voltage and power, as well as overall power and temperature.
`Shift + M` shows the memory timings, frequency and DIMM layout.
### CoreCtrl
CoreCtrl displays a range of information for AMD GPUs.
### Error monitoring
Some applications have hardware error reporting built-in.
#### Kernel log
For others, try checking the kernel log.
`$ journalctl -k --grep=mce`
#### Rasdaemon
You can also install `aur/rasdaemon` and enable its two services.
`# systemctl enable --now ras-mc-ctl.service`
`# systemctl enable --now rasdaemon.service`
`$ ras-mc-ctl --summary` shows all historic errors
`$ ras-mc-ctl --error-count` shows memory errors of the current session
