after 2.6.37 update - acpi doesn't report temperature anymore

Hey,
after the upgrade to the 2.6.37 kernel (kernel26  2.6.37-5 package) acpi isn't reporting the temperature anymore:

$ acpitool   
  Battery #1     : discharging, 78.84%, 03:05:58
  AC adapter     : off-line 
  Thermal info   : <not available>

The system is an up to date 32bit arch on an eeepc1000h. Any idea?

greetings

I got exactly the same using yacpi.

I think it's still looking in /proc/acpi. Temperature data is still available in /sys though, but it's not so clear to distinguish what's what (I have 3 temperature readouts there for example).

Closing to avoid duplication.
