Just use ACPI for monitoring CPU temperature with 
cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THZN/temperature.

My S1 got its 5th replacement-system-board about 3 month ago. Only the 
first system-board of this machine died of something which looked like an 
overheating graphics-chip. The fan did turn on though. Two system-boards 
had to be replaced as the system-boards I got as replacement for another 
one were defective. One system-board was replaced because the system-fan 
died. And the last system-board was replaced while trying to repair a 
dying harddisk. The dying harddisk was replaced during another repair.
