    Install lm-sensors:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
    To detect what sensors are available:

    Code:
    sudo sensors-detect
    When you want to see the temp:

    Code:
    sensors

    sudo apt-get install acpi

    you can check the thermal info with "acpi -t". check the man page for more stuff.

    I tried this but it keeps saying no sensors detected or something... But I can check on Windows... (Triple Boot system)

    Lol I just Googled "Ubuntu no thermal sensors detected" and a couple of links came up saying Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic might have a bug... A few people say it worked fine on older versions and on Windows which seems to be similar to my situation...
