Binary package hint: acpid

When I updated from Karmic to Maverick, my Thinkpad T410s started
overheating, with the CPU reaching temperatures in excess of 90 degrees
C.

My fix: Following
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_control_fan_speed, I created
/etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.conf with: options thinkpad_acpi
fan_control=1 and installed the package thinkfan. After rebooting, CPU
temperatures are around 50 degrees C.

This seems a potentially dangerous situation, and the Ubuntu
install/update program should be careful to preserve temperature
control.
