Issue with the prepare_install_2_6.sh script installLmSensors function.

[ggreen88]

The installLmSensors function doesn't take into account the graphics card. The file it download is setup for nvidia not ati. I ended up using the HOW-TO from here http://youresuchageek.blogspot.fr/2012/06/xbmc-install-and-config-howto-for-linux.html to update it.

I'm aware it's only working for Nvidia cards. I just haven't come around to adding ATI support. Thanks for scharing the howto. I'll integrate support for this in the next release.

There is zero need for some random how-to what ATI cards need is compatible advancedsettings.xml.

<advancedsettings>
  <cputempcommand>sensors|sed -ne "s/temp1: \+[-+]\([0-9]\+\).*/\1 C/p"</cputempcommand>
  <gputempcommand>/usr/bin/aticonfig --od-gettemperature | grep Temperature | cut -f 2 -d "-" | cut -f 1 -d "." | sed -e "s, ,," | sed 's/$/ C/'</gputempcommand>
</advancedsettings>

Problem solved, not that I use ATI that was ripped from http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=116996

part of this could be implemented now

Can this be done?

function installLmSensors()
{
    showInfo "Installing temperature monitoring package (apply all defaults)..."
    aptInstall lm-sensors
    clear
    echo ""
    echo "$(tput setaf 2)$(tput bold)INSTALLATION INFO: Please confirm all questions with ENTER (applying the suggested option)."
    echo "$(tput setaf 2)The XBMC installation will continue automatically when finished.$(tput sgr0)"
    echo ""
    echo ""

    sudo sensors-detect

    if [ ! -e "$XBMC_ADVANCEDSETTINGS_FILE" ]; then
    if [[ $GFX_CARD == NVIDIA ]]; then
        createDirectory "$TEMP_DIRECTORY" 1 0
        download $DOWNLOAD_URL"temperature_monitoring.xml"
        createDirectory "$XBMC_USERDATA_DIR" 0 0
        IS_MOVED=$(move $TEMP_DIRECTORY"temperature_monitoring.xml" "$XBMC_ADVANCEDSETTINGS_FILE")

        if [ "$IS_MOVED" == "1" ]; then
            showInfo "Temperature monitoring successfully enabled in XBMC"
        else
            showError "Temperature monitoring could not be enabled in XBMC"
        fi
    fi
fi
    if [[ $GFX_CARD == AMD ]]; then
        createDirectory "$TEMP_DIRECTORY" 1 0
        download $DOWNLOAD_URL"amd-temperature_monitoring.xml"
        createDirectory "$XBMC_USERDATA_DIR" 0 0
        IS_MOVED=$(move $TEMP_DIRECTORY"temperature_monitoring.xml" "$XBMC_ADVANCEDSETTINGS_FILE")

        if [ "$IS_MOVED" == "1" ]; then
            showInfo "Temperature monitoring successfully enabled in XBMC"
        else
            showError "Temperature monitoring could not be enabled in XBMC"
        fi
    fi

    showInfo "Temperature monitoring successfully configured"

I'll have a look at it.
