Update - I have upgraded to 2.6.32-21 and the laptop was still running
hot by the time it booted up.  However I noticed under 'Hardware
Drivers' that fglrx has now been made available.  I have installed it
and the results are significantly better.  The only disadvantage is that
Plymouth runs in 800 x 600 instead of my native 1366 x 768 but I'll live
with that and at least my 6 year-old wont suffer burns to her lap now.
