I'm also hit by this overheating issue -- it happens whenever I'm doing cpu-intensive activities which shouldn't trouble my laptop (they never did in ubuntu10:4).
Currently, I'm using Xubuntu 11:10. $ uname -a Linux bryn-laptop 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:56:25 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
