Is 2.4.19-pre5-ac3 destroying my laptop?

Some of us with Sony FXA laptops have noticed our computers becoming
rather hot.

I'm running linux 2.4.19-pre5-ac3 and I've tried both ACPI w/acpid and
APM w/lvcool, and there are occasions where the laptop becomes so hot
that I turn it off.

If I power back on, the BIOS immediately turns the fan on.

When running with ACPI I'm using acpid-20010510.tar.gz.

Any pointers that would help diagnose this problem before I or
others fry CPUs would be appreciated.
