This is normally caused by a BIOS that does not support the ACPI CPU
temperature output. You may be able to get the temperature by
configuring lmsensors.

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