Thanks, I've actually tried 'mbmon', however that didn't work either. Someone else pointed to the same error and no solution were found as far as I'm aware:

sonata# mbmon -d
ioctl(smb0:open): No such file or directory
SMBus[Intel8XX(ICH/ICH2/ICH3/ICH4/ICH5/ICH6)] found, but No HWM available on it!!
No Hardware Monitor found!!
InitMBInfo: Bad file descriptor

Thx,

Tamouh
