ASL supports both the lm_sensors package and the ACPI system to let you look at the CPU temperature if your motherboard supports the function.

If the motherboard reports reading the temperature through ACPI you will have this file:

 cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM0/temperature

If it does not you can try lm_sensors, to set it up you will need to disable asl-mod in init.d:

Step 1) Allow modules to be loaded

 rm /etc/rc3.d/S99asl-mod

Step 2)

 reboot

Step 3)

 sensors-detect

Then follow the dialog from this utility, if sensors are detected it will tell you, after that you can read them with:

 sensors 

Step 4) reenable the security policy

 asl -m kernel_check.sh -f
