Libgmail, Twitter, Ideapad S10 Hardware Info on Linux

Not sure why but (under Ubuntu) the fan has been running nonstop for the past hour (not sure why, perhaps because the temperature is 61 C, who knows) even booted into fluxbox. I have a little project/tool involving gmail that I'm hoping to get done before the end of the year (not a vuln or anything, don't get too excited) that I've had my head in libgmail for the past 24 hours as well as starting to sort of get the point of Twitter (notice my tweets on the side) but I started poking around at /proc and lshw/dmidecode, etc on the S10. There is definitely something funky with power management. A couple of times (even under XP) the battery value doesn't show up properly and gnome-power-manager doesn't start up properly 20-25% of the time.
