Description-en: display graphs for monitoring hardware temperature
Psensor is a GTK+ application for monitoring hardware sensors,
including temperatures and fan speeds.
.
It displays a curve for each sensor, alerts user using Desktop Notification
and Application Indicator when a temperature is too high.

It can monitor:
* the temperature of the motherboard and CPU sensors (using lm-sensors).
* the temperature of the NVidia GPUs (using XNVCtrl).
* the temperature of the Hard Disk Drives (using hddtemp or atasmart lib).
* the rotation speed of the fans (using lm-sensors).
* the sensors of a remote computer (using psensor-server).
