(I tend to recommend 'make-kpkg modules-image' from the kernel source
tree, but if you got a lm-sensors-$KVERS_*.deb package out, you're
probably fine.)

Make sure you have the resulting lm-sensors-2.4.16 package installed
('dpkg --install ../lm-sensors-2.4.16*.deb' should work), along with
lm-sensors ('apt-get install lm-sensors').  As root, run
sensors-detect; that will suggest some lines to add to /etc/modules,
which you should do.  Then, you should be able to run 'sensors' to get
some temperature readings.  You can also install the sensord package
to get some monitoring and periodic temperature checks, with results
syslogged.
