While this is considered a critical issue, the workaround (thinkfan) is affected by another bug and it still isn't fixed after almost six months... I have put a how-to online on how to patch&build&configure thinkfan for affected users not comfortable in building packages. http://gertverdemme.nl/desktop/thinkpad/thinkfan_patch_overheating Hope this helps.
