indeed this is a good way.
acpi patches have known side-effects so i would nack any hand-picking
of those.
do we have a report from an affected laptop that booting with noacpi
solves the thermal issues?
i don't agreee with the fuzz about this bug report nor with the severity.
for the sarge release kernel-image 2.6.8 did not boot on a wide range
of market available intel boards and there were overheating bug reports.
completly disabling acpi seems like an overreaction, based on the fact
that the affected laptops are quite specific. on the other hand i'm
delighted to see discussions about the linux-image upgrade in a stable
revision.
happy christmas
