  • Show fan speed in RPM.
  • Monitor network statistics for a specified network interface.
  • Clear and simple terminal-based user interface.

Prerequisites

Before running the System Info Dashboard, ensure you have the following prerequisites:

  • Bash: The script is written in Bash and requires a Bash shell.
  • lm-sensors: To retrieve CPU temperature and fan speed information, you need to have lm-sensors installed and configured.
