yes. seems to be some sort of chip. a CPU I'dd say, yes.

 
  but 74°C and 95°C -being Celsius- are a bit high values for whatever
  they meassure (even for a laptop). From what source (s) does
  sensors-applet gather the data?
  
  I don't know. but the following should help... I hope it does :)
  
  root@wheejy:/# sensors-detect
  No i2c device files found.
 
 This doesn't look good. 
 
 Ah, it's a solved bug, at least if you are running wheezy/sid:
 
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=628228
  
  root@wheejy:/# sensors
  acpitz-virtual-0
  Adapter: Virtual device
  temp1:+57.5°C  (crit = +126.0°C)
 
 This looks like the CPU sensor. It is still a bit high but dependending 
 on the CPU model it could be in the safe range.

this is a DELL Latitude D620 laptop. It's a 2 core.

processor   : 0
vendor_id   : GenuineIntel
cpu family  : 6
model   : 15
model name  : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T5500  @ 1.66GHz
stepping: 6
cpu MHz : 1000.000
cache size  : 2048 KB

thx a lot for the pointers :)

Joao



  
  nouveau-pci-0100
  Adapter: PCI adapter
  temp1:+79.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +110.0°C)
 
 Ah, this seems your VGA card's sensor.
  
  I can add that these 2 values (79 and 57) are actually the ones
  displayed by the applet. both the sensors and sensors-detect
  programs are part of the lm-sensors package.
  
  Can you guys make some sense out of these informations ?
 
 Yep. They now make more sense. But take an eye to the CPU temp, it should 
 not exceed its limits (neither 74°C nor 95°C are good numbers).
 
 Is this a notebook? Notebooks CPUs tend to be more heat and they support 
 higher values for T junction.

sensors-detect (the lm-sensors package) should tell you. On my machine
the higher figure would be the CPU.

Another way is to deduce which is which from what the bios reports.
