I have a similar problem with a BenQ Joybook 8000 (CPU is a Pentium 4 M). I can't run cpu intensive tasks (and I used to with Breezy Badger without any problem) because the CPU temperature gets hotter and hotter until 95 Celsius degrees, when the laptop hangs and I have to hard boot it. The only "workaround" I've found is to run powersave -l to scale down the CPU frequency from 2.6 GHz to 1.2 GHz, but as you may imagine this is not optimal, because I need as much CPU speed as possible. As I said, everything was fine with Breezy Badger, but with Dapper Drake I can't really work :( Any clues?
