These names are generated in the driver, "before" sensors.conf gets at the data. Once you know which one is which (see below), you can set labels in sensors.conf like label temp1 "CPU temp" label temp2 "Beer fridge temp" etc. > I'm not sure what these temperatures correspond to. You have to have documentation from your motherboard manufacturer to know for sure. Failing that, if the BIOS displays the temperatures, you can compare the readings you get there to the readings that sensors gives you to figure out which one is which. If you have multiple CPUs or multiple cores, and have the ability to run a CPU-intensive program on only one CPU or core, you can do that and see which temperature goes up significantly.
