fixing 'sensors fans' applet in mint/cinnamon
Posted: Sat Feb 27, 2016 3:20 pm
just some random nonsense for the neurotic/ocd among us (i.e. likely most of us lol)
there's a nice applet for Gnome/Cinnamon that shows fan speed in the system tray (and if you click on it, shows the entire lmsensors output)
http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/199
but.................. the author sort of managed to break it and it hasn't worked correctly for a year or more.
but it still works great with a couple minor tweaks on:
so basically just install the applet, then delete it, then replace the above applet.js file with the following, then add it again.

no rocket-surgery, just a couple edits I did to the parsing.
