If ACPI doesn't report it for you via sysctl (somewhere under hw.acpi tree - look for "temp" string there), it all depends on monitoring chips which are used for those machines. These chips usually aren't part of the main chipset, are available via SMBus / LPC (ex-ISA), and can even be different on the different batches of the same MB (I've seen it on Intel desktop MB). You can just try sysutils/healthd port, possible with my patch: ftp://external.atlantis.dp.ua/FreeBSD/healthd/0.7.9/patch-IntelDeskBoards.v04 which adds support for the following monitoring chips: Analog Devices ADM1025, SMSC LPC47M1x2, and National Semiconductors LM85.
