acpid thermal module reboots notebook

[Liz Young]

Hi *,

Having trouble with Dapper on a new HP notebook rebooting as soon as 
acpid loads at startup...  the thermal zone critical limit is set 
incorrectly to 0 on the second CPU (kernel 2.6.15-23-686).  
From syslog:
dv5178 kernel: [4295177.132000] ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ01] (51 C)
dv5178 kernel: [4295177.141000] Critical temperature reached (0 C), 
shutting down.
dv5178 kernel: [4295177.158000] ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ02] (0 C)
dv5178 shutdown[6420]: shutting down for system halt.

I had to remove thermal from /etc/default/acpid to boot correctly, but 
suspend is broken because it calls thermal somewhere during resume.

At one point I could boot with thermal loading and I noticed somewhere 
in /proc/acpi/... that TZ01 was 51 C  (temp) 99 C (limit) and TZ02 was 
0 C / 0 C.

Anyone can hint how to get acpi to set the critical limit on second CPU 
properly (sysctl -w blah blah etc)?  Or, is it read directly from BIOS?

I want to file a bug report but there are soo many for acpi-support 
right now.  It would be nice to include a fix or work-around with it.
