There seem to be related bugs:
[Bug 651917] openSUSE 11.3 overheats with Toshiba L300D
[Bug 505880] Fan stays on: Toshiba Satellite L305-S5944
It looks like this is a general problem on quite some Toshiba laptops.
Afaik there is a kernel driver for Toshiba laptops which is not maintained any
more or similar.
You'll have to look this up and find out yourself. Feel free to point to
relevant mainline posts or kernel bugzilla entries.
Once the problem is clear, I can add backports/fixes.
BTW: I guess this laptop does not have Linux support by the vendor?
Some do support Linux, you can even buy an HP laptop pre-loaded with SUSE.
You would not run into such nasty HW/BIOS issues on such a laptop.
