AFAIK, lm_sensors is the only method to extract the sensors data from the monitor chip and eeprom. For a frontend, I use GKRellM.

You can get temps from nVidia cards that support it without lm_sensors. And for harddrives, you can use hddtemp with the gkrellm-hddtemp plugin. The hddtemp daemon reads the drive temp from the SMART info, so it also does not require lm_sensors.
