heh, i cant even compile 2.5 due to old binutils in yd2.3 :P

I appear to get nothing like this, if i pull my power out with a full
battery the PMU says I have 152 mins of battery power (which seems about
right). I even ran the battery completely flat and recharged it as
suggested when I first got the laptop.
The whole of the laptop is warm, esp. around the CPU which is hot to the
touch all the time, even when the CPU is idling.
