There is a package called "lm_sensors" that loads as a module and reads
the chip/bios and writes the result into /proc/sensors:

4c : lm75
rgb@ganesh|T:531>cat /proc/sensors
Vcore: +2.81V (min = +2.52V, max = +3.08V)
Vcore2: +2.81V (min = +2.52V, max = +3.08V)
+3.3V: +3.32V (min = +2.97V, max = +3.63V)
+5V: +4.91V (min = +4.48V, max = +5.48V)
+12V: +11.97V (min = +10.82V, max = +13.19V)
-12V: -12.18V (min = -10.79V, max = -13.18V)
-5V: -5.22V (min = -4.50V, max = -5.49V)
Fan1: 5973 rpm (min=3000 rpm)
Fan2: 6081 rpm (min=3000 rpm)
Fan3: 0 rpm (min=3000 rpm) ALARM (not connected?)
Mainboard: 47 C (min = 0 C, max = 50 C)
Other alarms: (none)

Temp-1: +44.5 C (Tos = +50.0 C, Thyst = +45.0 C)
I got it originally via freshmeat.net (as I recall) on the advice of
somebody on the beowulf list. I imagine that you could run down a
current net site with alta vista -- if you have a hard time let me know
and I'll attach the tarball I got to a reply.
