I've been using the port "xmbmon" for that, in
combination with

        device smbus
        device iicbus
        device iicsmb
        device iicbb
        device iic

in the kernel configuration file - on a Pentium 4
system. I haven't tried the sysctl method, because
xmbmon did work out of the box. :-) You can also
use mbmon for text output.

Here's an example from ~/.xinitrc calling xmbmon:

xmbmon -g 150x100+0+897 \
        -tmin 20.0 -tmax 70.0 \
        -cmtmb CPU -cltmb blue \
        -cmtcpu CS -cltcpu cyan \
        -cmtcs SYS -cltcs green \
        -vmin 2.0 -vmax 3.0 -cmvc V -clvc red &

Depending on the sensor installation of your
particular system, check if the different values
do match the hardware. Maybe check from within
your CMOS setup for reference values.
