This script checks the GPU temperature of ATI based graphics card using the aticonfig tool from their proprietary driver fglrx. The script is written in Bash and complies with the Nagios development guidelines. For example it uses the -w, -c and -v arguments, has some basic sanity checks and has an exit 3 catch all code. The script should behave like any other Nagios plugin. It should run under any modern Linux distribution. It has been tested and known to work under Debian based systems with Nagios 3.x HISTORY This plugin is based on check_temp which I wrote earlier this year. The code is almost identical to it. Many thanks to Chad Columbus who sent me bugfixes and corrections for check_temp. Without check_temp their would never have been check_gputemp. The plugin were submitted to Nagios Exchange in january 2012.
