Waybar CPU temperature

MNT Reform
1

Hello,

This past weekend the NVMe in my Reform 2 gave up the ghost. I have installed a new NVMe now and reinstalled using: System Image v5: 2026-01-27

I was previously on v3 IIRC and I do see some good changes to the Waybar configuration. However, the CPU temperature is no longer listed. Would anyone have the correct stanza to add in ~.config/waybar/config to re-enable this? Note that my system is equipped with the original imx8mq module.

Ok managed to get it back now. In case anyone is curious:
