This problem disappeared for me sometime while I was running Intrepid. Now that I've done the upgrade to jaunty, it's back.
I upgraded via the "do-release-upgrade" method. The precise message is: Apr 26 10:34:46 arwen kernel: [54142.600473] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [ffff88022f81abc0] 'on' It occurs every 6 seconds, just like everyone else is seeing.
