I am experiencing the same issue on T61 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
If I leave a background application running (boinc client, sbackup) the laptop overheats and shuts down. I have the cpus throttled back from 2.5 GHZ to 800MHz. Currently running sbackup the cpu temp is 85C. If I run the CPU at 2.5GHz the temperature begins to climb and eventually the laptop shuts down. I have installed tpfand and have manually set the fan to on - however it is not running fast enough at under 3000 rpm. Temp report from lm-sensors. It is running extremely hot.
