Title:
  Ubuntu is overheating most laptops

Status in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 15.04 is overheating laptops. Both laptops at home powers off,
  and both have different graphic adapters.

  One of them was working fine under Ubuntu 14.10, is mostly new from
  Toshiba, and uses Intel integrated graphics which presumably doesn't
  overheat too much compared with AMD and NVIDIA ones. In fact cover
  always stays cool.

  Even when the CPU is set to a lower energy state and thermald is
  installed, the problem still persist. After reading various questions
  about this issue in AskUbuntu.com I greatly suspect this will power
  off most laptops.

  This is terrible. How could flaws like this go into release? Who codes
  device drivers and graphic servers to burn hardware?
