confused CPU temperature monitor for Linux?

Here is a question for Linux power users. Is there a CPU temperature monitor program that runs under Linux, the way that Motherboard Monitor runs under Windows?

CPU Temp:

I have a Compaq Intel P4 box running SUSE Linux 9, I'm concerned about CPU temps. I had a problem with the fan running very loudly, so I took off the heat sink, cleaned out the dust, and cleaned off the old heat sink gook and put on some Radio Shack silicone heat sink gook. Now I am running WCG and the CPU is at 100%, but no loud fan. How can I monitor the CPU temp? I installed gkrellm but it doesn't show CPU temp.

Yes, there is ...

Depends on the "flavour" of Linux as to how easy it is to set-up.

The most popular front end is "gkrellm" and most 'Distros' will have it to install.

In Suse, look via YaST for sensors and you'll find the correct "lib's" that need installing.
