hello,
i'm a bit confused as to why lm_sensors reports a much different cpu
temperature reading than my bios (i.e. when i startup my computer, enter
the bios setup screen and go to pc health status).  lm_sensors reports
roughly 20 degrees (C) cooler.  i'm using lm_sensors-2.8.6-1.

thanks for the help.
