Kernel module 'thermal'

[Anne Wilson]

I've not had much luck with lm-sensors on this box, so when LXF ran an article 
on it this month I decided to try again.  The first thing it talks about is 
the kernel module 'thermal'.

# lsmod | grep thermal
#
# modprobe thermal
FATAL: Module thermal not found.

It goes on to say that you can type 'acpi -t' to get the same output:

acpi -t
-bash: acpi: command not found

Perhaps this is why lm-sensors can't get any info?

Any hints?
