Have a look at this thread on Ubuntu forums for setting up a new /tmp partiton:

http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-708293.html

Follow the instructions given over there and then run 'sudo mount
/tmp' to mount the partition, instead of rebooting as specified in
those instructions...  However, I am not very sure about what will
happen to the existing files in /tmp.  He has given instructions there
to take care of that, but I havent't tried anything like this
before...
