Went ahead and tried the new kernel install (2.6.30-020630) to fix this issue and it seemed to ameliorate the problem somewhat, but my laptop still runs hotter than it did in Hardy or Intrepid. The CPU temperatures no longer reach 70C under little to no load, but they will climb that high under a significant load, whereas they did not when I was running Hardy or Intrepid. Haven't experienced a thermal shutdown, but that's probably because I was so paranoid about the temperature of my laptop in the first place. So I'm not sure if the dumps you've requested would help out (from my box). Let me know if you still need those files.
