I was just trying out Ubuntu 11.10 from my USB drive. I used it for about 10
minutes, and then my laptop cooler started spinning a little louder (still not
as loud as it normally does in 11.04). I installed lm-sensors, ran
sensors-detect, en checked the output of the sensors command... Glad I was
sitting in an armchair or I would have fallen off.

This seems to me like a critical bug, as this could kill users their hardware.
My laptop was indeed getting quite hot on my knees (though I wouldn't have
dreamed of 108°C!). I ran sensors again, just to be sure, all that happened was
that the temperature had risen by anoter 1°C.
I'm just using Unity 2D, as my graphic card (NVidia Quadro NVS 110M) has been
blacklisted for the normal Unity.
I wasn't doing anything in particular. Only playing some music using Banshee
(by the way, the music lens doesn't show any songs in Unity 2D? Also, the font
in the Unity 2D Panel changes after a few minutes use, as you can see in the
screenshot).

Ubuntu 11.10 AMD64 Daily (25th of september, 2011), booted from a USB drive.
