One possibility is that it's a hardware problem; for example, it could
be that your heat sink on the CPU or GPU didn't have enough thermal
compound installed, or some such.
I have an X61s, which has a different BIOS series and a low-voltage
CPU chip, so it's not directly comparable, but I can say that I've not
had any problems even when I've loaded the CPU significantly.
Of course, I also use mainline kernels and not Debian kernels. One
thing that you might try to do while you are at DebConf is to see if
you can find other people with the same laptop model and see if they
can duplicate the problem on their machine, so you can try varying
both the Debian/non-debian kernel, as well as trying to see if you can
reproduce the problem on multiple laptops.
