I compiled and installed it without errors, but can't load it.
I right-clicked into the panel and selected "add applet to panel", but in the showed list, I can't find the applet.
I'm using KDE 3.5.2 under debian on a IBM Thinkpad R40.
Thank you, the hint with "./configure --prefix=/usr" did the work.
But It doesn't work correctly, I thinks its because I have another Thinkpad as you.
The applet loads with the Message "Error reading thermal information from proc FS".
Thank you!
After loading the module ibm_acpi, the applet works.
I think, my Thinkpad has not all sensors you use in the applet, the temperatures for the two bottom items (powerline and ???) show me 0°C.
cat /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal shows me this:
temperatures: 58 51 0 0 0 0 0 0
Also the font is to small für reading the temperatures, you have to implement a option to change that!
It would also be good, if we could open the option-menü with clicking on the icons.
And a tooltip would also be nice.

Have you configured it with --prefix=/usr or set you lib directory to /usr/local/kde ? If not, KDE will not find the library in its path.

Is the ibm-acpi module loaded ? is /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal existing ?

It seems to work correctly on an IBM Thinkpad R51. Thanks a lot ;-) r/herwig
