How to check CPU temperature in OpenSUSE Linux

To check the CPU temperature in OpenSUSE Linux, you can use the ‘sensors’ command. This command can give you information about the temperature of different components of your system, including the CPU.

Before you can use the ‘sensors’ command, you will need to make sure that the ‘lm_sensors’ package is installed on your system. To install it, use the following command:

sudo zypper install lm_sensors

Once the package is installed, you can use the following command to check the CPU temperature:

sensors

This will display the current temperature of the CPU, as well as the temperature of other components of your system. You can also use the command with the -u option which will show the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

sensors -u

Note: The temperature readings from the ‘sensors’ command are not always accurate, it’s best to check the temperature in your BIOS or UEFI firmware settings for more accurate reading.
