Hi Amber, I've applied a patch that may help make passive cooling (CPU frequency scaling) work better. It seems that CPU frequencies may not all be scaled down together which could account for some overheating.
Can you download and install these kernel .debs and *NOT* apply the fan control hacks (mentioned in comment #2) to see if this fix helps. The 64 bit kernel debs can be found in: http://zinc.canonical.com/~cking /hot-tp/ download, and install them with sudo dpkg -i *.deb If you don't mind trying these out and seeing if you can overheat your machine with this possible fix and report back.
