I have a question that I hope you will be able to answer. I have included the text from the description of sensors-applet:

------------------------- Start Package Description -----------------------------------------
It can gather data from the following sources:
 * ACPI thermal zones, via the Linux kernel ACPI modules
 * Linux kernel i2c modules
 * lm-sensors (libsensors)
 * Linux kernel i8k module (for Dell Inspiron Laptops)
 * Linux kernel ibm-acpi module
 * Linux kernel PowerPC modules therm_adt746x and therm_windtunnel
 * Linux kernel iMac G5 Windfarm module
 * hddtemp daemon for reading temperatures from S.M.A.R.T. equipped hard disks
 * Linux kernel Omnibook module
 ---> NVIDIA graphics cards (with separate sensors-applet-nvidia package)
 * Linux kernel sonypi module (for Sony Vaio laptops)

Alarms can be set for each sensor to notify the user once a certain high or
low value has been reached, and can be configured to execute a given command
at given repeated intervals.

------------------------- End Package Description -----------------------------------------

Where is the package: "sensors-applet-nvidia". Wouldn't this package enable Nvidia temp. readings? if so, when can we expect to see this package? Is there something I am missing? Is there something I can do? Thanks for your support!
