newly installed xubuntu 11.10 here - whats up?

help

running hot due insulating dust give clean. try running distro called puppy ( runs in ram cd , won't touch actual hd install unless ask ) cross check. if doesn't run hot know dealing software problem. install sysinfo ( in standard repositories ) use post system specs, might people know more me diagnose hardware specific software bug. there small program in repositores gets specific cpu temperatures, lm-sensors, handy diagnostics too. if put in enter "sensors" without quotes in terminal use it. sorry isn't fix diagnostic advice call elaborate bump. luck.
