Hi Alexander Kapshuk, You probably don't need that module. Grep your dmesg for therm|thermal. You should see ACPI registering your thermal zones: [ 1.424899] thermal LNXTHERM:00: registered as thermal_zone0 [ 1.424944] ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZS0] (32 C) then look for them in: /sys/class/thermal/ /sys/bus/acpi/devices/LNXTHERM:00/thermal_zone/temp if not check your kernel config for needed options like: CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y Regards, Dragostin Yanev
