This is normally caused by a BIOS that does not support the ACPI CPU

With a Dual core CPU, you should geempet 2 different temperature
displays - one for each core. But to get them under thermal_zone, it
has to be supported by the BIOS.

If entering the BIOS menu, does it show the CPU temp and all that jazz?
If it's a BIOS issue, it's less likely that sensors support will help
much. A BIOS flash/update might help a great deal.
You would think that would be the case. But in practice, you can
have a BIOS that will read the same sensors that lmsensors supports,
but will not provide cpu temps as part of its ACPI interface. I have
a motherboard like that, and it has the latest BIOS available. (I am
no stranger to upgrading a BIOS, or other firmware.)

AFAIK, Asus mobos are best known do to such wonders.
