Funnily I went into the same problem on F15 and that happened before and
after I replaced the fan. It's also a Thinkpad, but older generation
(T60). I regularly get shut down because of excessive heat or can't
reboot because of it. Never ever happened before F15 (I assumed it was a
hardware problem).

I'll re-read the thread and see if I can get useful metrics.

Thanks.
