   I also see this issue on my lenovo t61p. Hard for me to tell if it happens all the time or just occassionally. I will notice the keyboard burning up and realize that my temps are at 90C even though I am not doing anything processor intensive. No 3D (I don't use compiz or other compositing). Fan is sitting at a fairly low speed. When I switch the fans to manual unlocked mode the temps settle down to 58/69 (temp1 and temp2 respectively) which still seems pretty hot especially for max cooling.

   I think this might be a contributor to the periodic instabilities I see under Jaunty. I'll start paying more attention to the temps.
