Have you taken a look at sensors-applet (http://sensors-applet.sourceforge.net)?

It works on my Toshiba laptop running Fedora 10. I found it the other day already installed on my laptop which means that I probably downloaded it from one the standard repositories that I use for Fedora 10 or that it was part of the Fedora 10 DVD iso image since I did not install it from SourceForge.net.

sensors-applet is part of the gnome-applet-sensors package.
