i have this for my quad core machine

Code:

${color green}CPU:1 $color ${exec sensors|grep 'Core 0:'|cut -f2 -d '+'|cut -f1 -d'.'}'C   ${cpubar cpu1}
${color green}CPU:2 $color ${exec sensors|grep 'Core 1:'|cut -f2 -d '+'|cut -f1 -d'.'}'C   ${cpubar cpu2}
${color green}CPU:3 $color ${exec sensors|grep 'Core 2:'|cut -f2 -d '+'|cut -f1 -d'.'}'C   ${cpubar cpu3}
${color green}CPU:4 $color ${exec sensors|grep 'Core 3:'|cut -f2 -d '+'|cut -f1 -d'.'}'C   ${cpubar cpu4}

requires lm-sensors installed, you need to run sudo sensors-detect to detect what chipsets to read and a reboot.

What are you trying to use to get the temperature at the moment? Can you post your .conkyrc?

Or just try that. ^

when sensor-detect finishes it should ask you it you want to add the the right kernel modules to load at boot. select yes then reboot.

running sensors then should spit out all the readings from hardware it could find.

from my htpc:

Code:

lee@sakura:~$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:       +20.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1:       +22.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)
