One of the discussions within the Turtlebot SIG was the need for a generic linux tools stack (for instance, we have the laptop battery monitor node, which should really not be in the turtlebot_bringup package). This seems like another ideal candidate for such a stack of reusable tools for Linux PC monitoring. <br>

Hey,<div><br></div><div>Since not all of us can afford computers with IPMI, a while back there was some interest in using Linux&#39;s lm_sensors as the source of diagnostics for the computer_monitor node (currently in the pr2 stacks).</div>
