Bug Description
Even when sitting on a hard flat surface that should provide adequate ventilation, my Lenovo T61p is running very hot. The left side keyboard is hot to the touch and the underside of the laptop is almost too hot to touch with a bare hand.
I'm more than willing to assist with debugging this issue but I'm not sure what information would be most useful to the devs. Please advise and I will do my best to get the requested information.

I am seeing the same issue on a Z61T after a clean install of Ubuntu 9.04 on my Lenovo ThinkPad Z61T. I ran 8.04 on the same machine since the day it was released and the laptop always stayed nice and cool. Now it is uncomfortably hot.
