Sorry for the long delay, I must have overlooked your question

currently, I monitor the temperature of my CPU, only. This can be done
on the command shell:

# cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/temperature
temperature:             49 C

It is not that nice for beeing required to look that up, but it
shouldn't be hard to implement an small application in python which
displays that temperature in gnome-panel.

For me it is not very important to observe other values, because I
don't overclock my system. If I did, I would have a look at
lm-sensors.
