Hi everyone,

I've just noticed something very odd.  On my Dell D820 laptop, when 
running off AC power from boot, by idle CPU temperature sits around 58C.

If I unplug the power, and then plug it back in again, it will drop down 
to around 49-50C within a minute or two.  It will stay there.  With or 
without powerd running.

Here's some info:
