[Bug 370173] Re: Ubuntu 9.04 laptop overheat and shutdown

I have seen this behaviour for the first time today. I've had Jaunty running for a couple of weeks on my Compaq Armada M700 (PIII-800). Today I installed the latest batch of updates (I usually update whenever it tells me, so it should only be the last day or so's worth of updates) and then noticed

OK, after a cool down and reboot: It was /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/C19A/something it was popping up and complaining about. After the reboot it hasn't been warning me. It also seems to be running cooler, and I've felt the fan running.as well. I guess the update left it in an odd state. I've now

I have just updated my own Compaq Armada M700 with the Jaunty release (not the Alpha as above), using the 'New distribution available' button on Update Manager. It all seemed to go smoothly but I have the same issue, It fails to boot with many messages scrolling past too quick to catch before

I saw the same issue (although it was with python2.6.1-0ubuntu7 not 3). It was difficult to see what was going on because the dist-upgrade terminal window is too small and not resizeable. I noticed debconf complaining that it wanted at least a 31x13 window as well. -- package python
