NAME

SYNOPSIS
       gsmartcontrol [OPTIONS]

       gsmartcontrol-root [--desktop=<desktop>] [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
       GSmartControl  is  a graphical user interface for smartctl (from smart‐
       montools), which is a tool for querying and  controlling	 SMART	(Self-
       Monitoring,  Analysis,  and  Reporting  Technology) data on modern hard
       disk drives. It allows you to inspect the drive's SMART data to	deter‐
       mine its health, as well as run various tests on it.

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the gsmartcontrol and gsmartcon‐
       trol-root commands.

       gsmartcontrol-root command launches gsmartcontrol  with	administrative
       privileges.  The	 desktop argument specifies which desktop is currently
       running, for automatic selection of native su mechanism.	 Valid	values
       for desktop are auto, kde, gnome, other.
