I've been running Ubuntu on my HP Pavilion dv6000 series laptop for years, starting with 6.04 and upgrading as each new version came out. I never had a problem with overheating until I upgraded to 9.04. In the week since I upgraded, my computer is overheated from the moment I boot. With nothing more than Firefox and Thunderbird open, my CPU temperature is 83 C, and my GPU is 103 C from the start. If I do anything remotely intensive on the PU, like try to watch a video, the system quickly reaches the 95 C critical temperature and shuts down. I've tried everything, from cleaning out the fan (which wasn't that dirty) to placing a cooling pad underneath and even propping up the computer several inches to improve airflow, yet nothing has helped. This is unacceptable.
