Yes, it is called lm_sensors and it ites in with the hardware on your 
board.  You need lm_utils as well and it is not installed by default, 
because lm_sensors at this time destrroys some laptop motherboards by 
overwriting a non-flashable soldered in PROM.  

But if you are not using an IBM ThinkPad A20, 770, 600, or 660, you can 
use software Manager to call for lm_utils then run something like 
gkrellm which is a nice graphical front-end to monitoring.
