OK, fair enough, the latest version of the emc1403 driver may indeed
work then. That being said:
 * It might not tell you more than the thermal ACPI driver is already
   telling you.
 * If the ACPI temperature comes from the same chip, you may get
   conflicting accesses to the chip by using two drivers for the same
   device.
 * As Guenter said already, if thermal management is broken on your
   laptop, this won't help you anyway. You need to report such problems
   to linux-pm and/or linux-acpi.
