Bug Description

I am trying to set alarms and desktop notifications for some of the sensors.

* <Right-click> on a sensor in the sensors table in the graph.
* On the context menu, click on "Preferences".
* Click the "Alarms" tab.

The high and low limits in the GUI allow for up to 3 digit numbers. But, for fan speed, 3 digit numbers are too few.

My CPU fan speed, during normal operation, typically exceeds 7000 RPM -- a 4 digit number. The case fans generally run at speed from 1000 RPM to 2300 RPM. As I write this, the GPU fan is running at about 4000 RPM.

This has an easy workaround: Edit /home/marathon/.psensor/psensor.cfg directly using a text editor.
