"udisks --ata-smart-refresh /dev/sdx" immediately got the data on a test system here using the Maverick livecd. So although it's a bit more awkward, it's possible to get smart info from the Lucid/Maverick livecds using that command. However it would be nice to have the data immediately displayed without having to go to the command line first.
