Things were about o.k. (not perfect, since the computer still worked at
higher temperature than it did with MacOSX) until today's update to
2.6.27-11-generic. Starting the computer with the loading cable
attached, within estimated 30 minutes temperature got so high I had to
shut down.

Started it again with no loading cable attached, everything is high.

Removing the "Fix Released" tag, hope this is the correct way of
configuring this bug.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.27-1-generic

Testing Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 4 64-Bit on a MacBook Pro rev. 3. Installing today's updates, the MacBook gets extremely hot and automatically goes into standby. This looks like an emergency standby caused by the EFI or something because it got overheated. Unless you put a metal plate or something under it, the fan runs on highest level at full power, which is not the usual.

Is there a tool you can see the CPU temperature with?
