Do you have lmsensors installed and configured?  Do you know if the
config file points to the right location to display the temperature?

For example, mine is /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature.  Yours
may be in a different location, but somewhere in /proc.

Check to see if there is any temperature info in /proc and go from there.
