gcc: don't agree that it is issue of some number of laptops - though acer aspire 5315 is quite cheap, there are reported more models of various brands with same symptoms.
Simo L: agree
I'm not an expert but imho it is some bug somewhere in Ubuntu or maybe there is something wrong in BIOS(es)?
As I said few comments before, I have Toshiba Satellite U500-10L and I updated BIOS with no success and also I tried older versions of Ubuntu (8.04) but there was same problem as with 9.04 - fan was always off and after a few minutes of idle time laptop was very hot (much more than I ever see in Vista) so I had to reboot in Vista where after while everything was OK again...
