54 degrees is fine.

Can you attach the output of the acpidump command? The BIOS is 
presumably reading the temperature without any trouble, given the fan 
behaviour, so it would be nice to check why Linux isn't picking it up. 
Do you get the same readings if you don't load the k8temp module? Also, 
make sure no other sensors modules are loaded. They can potentially 
interfere with ACPI.
