I'm not using synaptic, so I don't have those logs. I mostly upgrade via 'wajig daily-upgrade', which performs 'apt-get update && apt-get dist- upgrade' for me.
I tried reverting acpi-support to version 0.96 (and rebooting): that works around the problem for me. $ apt-show-versions acpi-support acpi-support/gutsy upgradeable from 0.96 to 0.98 $ acpi -t Battery 1: charged, 100% Battery 2: discharging, 34%, 01:17:46 remaining Thermal 1: ok, 45.0 degrees C Thermal 2: ok, 45.0 degrees C Thermal 3: ok, 44.0 degrees C Thermal 4: ok, 39.0 degrees C Thermal 5: ok, 27.0 degrees C Thermal 6: ok, 0.0 degrees C Note that I have 6 thermal-zones with 0.96.
