To be fair it doesn't have to be vmware, it can be any heavy long
term process. After shutting its self down it will immediately shut
down again until it has cooled down. If you close this ticket, i'm
moving to another distribution because this bug wasn't an issue under
Hardy.

>> I just updated to jaunty from dapper and my machine overheats a lot.   Its a powerful laptop, Intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz .   I noticed that my laptop stopped "breathing" like it did in dapper,  but it never speeds up the fan and just shuts down.   To recreate the issue try and slam the processor with anything,  I'm using vmware.
