I tried that ktemperature. It doesn't work without the dtd diced-toaster daemon running. Try as I might, I could not locate where to get that daemon from. I installed
ksensors instead. Once installed you go to commandline and run (as root)

Yes to all questions (unless you know different) then there are a few commands to load the required modules that you need to put into an
/etc/rc.* file (I put mine in /etc/rc.modules)
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# (c) Mandriva, Chmouel Boudjnah <chmouel@mandriva.com>
# $Id$
# description: launch modules specified in /etc/modules inspired by a
# Debian idea.
if modprobe -V 2> /dev/null | grep -q -m 1 module-init-tools; then
MODULES=/etc/modprobe.preload
else
MODULES=/etc/modules
fi
MODULES_D=$MODULES.d
for f in $MODULES $MODULES_D/*; do
[ -f $f ] || continue
# Loop over every line
(cat $f; echo) | while read module args
do
case "$module" in
\#*|"") continue ;;
esac
logger -t $0 "Loading module: $module"
modprobe $module $args >/dev/null 2>&1
done
done
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-nforce2
# Chip drivers
modprobe asb100
modprobe w83l785ts
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended
Restart your computer then configure ksensors from the desktop. I did notice that if you select
intel cpu you get 40°C and 25°C for an
amd cpu. Even so I've yet to see my cpu temp change, all other sensors change.
