This is affecting me too. I have a Thinkpad T420 and I realized there was a problem after nearly getting burned by touching the area near the fan on my laptop.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10.

This bug is serious because it causes hardware damage/reduced life expectancy on hardware. For the time being, I need to uninstall Ubuntu and go back to windows so I don't wreck my machine!
