Trying this just a few minutes ago, after
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude full-upgrade
on a vanilla intrepid alpha-5 install still gives the same result.
This is now using a 2.6.27-3 kernel.

It does thermostat now, though the temperature is rather hot.
At about 50C, the fan comes on (as above) very quietly, and
at about 60C, the fan comes on faster.     The fan now keeps the processor from
getting hotter than 62C, even when both cores are running at 100%.

So, good job!   It's now safe from melting.
But, is there some way to set the temperature a little lower?
A 60C laptop is really hard on the legs.

Perhaps an argument could be added to thermal.ko ?

FYI, I attach /var/log/syslog .
