Cpu temp widget not changing i3wm

I have installed endevour os i3 edition and I like it but i see the cpu temp widget is stuck at 32.8 C for some reason

I have tried running sudo sensors-detect and I think the widget is getting the temperature from the wrong place. It says 32.0C but the actual CPU temp is around 40C when i ran sensors

is the script we do offer for temperatures, it could be you need to edit this.

We do take it from here:

you may need to define the sensor-chip:

[CPU-temperature]
label=
command=~/.config/i3/scripts/temperature
interval=30
#T_WARN=70
#T_CRIT=90
SENSOR_CHIP="coretemp-isa-0000"

// example //

take the “sensor-Chip” from output of sensors:
2021-04-03_21-34

Thanks for reporting i just add a hint inside the config:

yes also from my side forget to welcome you, and only pull you a bunch of informations :wink:

That seems to work I changed it to the sensors that is actually my cpu and now it is updating at the correct temperature. Thank you for your help :smiley:
