how to check temperature on my desktop

["H. S." <greatexcalibur@yahoo.com>]

Just wondering how to check temperature on my desktop. On a laptop I use 
"acpi -V" to see the temperaute.

I was checking my desktop's(running Debian Sarge and kernel 2.6.9) 
motherboard's specs and notice it could be supporting temperature 
sensors. However, the boot log in /var/log/sys shows:

ACPI: Processor [CPU] (supports C1)
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]

and those are the only two lines containing ACPI. What does mean?

I have these modules loaded:
thermal
fan
button
processor
ac
battery

In /proc/acpi the following directories are emtpy(didn't check the others):
thermal_zone
fan
ac_adapter
and others


This is what I get when I try to get information:
$> acpi -V
No support for device type: thermal


So, how do I go about checking my CPU's(see below) temperature? And how 
do I confirm that my desktop really supports temperature reading?

thanks,
->HS
