I have to add a "Me Too" here also. I reported this on Ubuntu Forums some time ago but the issue disappeared (probably because I wasn't doing anything particularly CPU intensive until now). Converting sound files guarantees me a shutdown within a minute or two of starting the process.
Running Ubuntu 6.06 on a HP Pavilion zd8000 laptop. This particular bug is pretty major to me as its begining to effect my day to day work as well. I'll keep a close eye on this topic and give any assistance where I can. :-) GuitarFingers -- laptop overheats when performing CPU intensive tasks. https://launchpad.net/bugs/22336 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
