I forgot to tell something more: there is also "coretemp" package, but I 
do not have Inter Core, so it won't work; and also, I've heard that 
sometimes temperature is shown in the sysctl variables, but it ain't 
shown on my machine, I don't know why. Maybe there is something I could 
do for that?..
