Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
I've also noticed that the original firmware now says "GOODBYE" when I turn it off; it never used to do this before I installed RB and even after reintroducing the firmware that used to be on the device it still comes up with it. Weird.
this heat is coming from the very bottom left corner whenever the blue ring is on.
I too have a heat issue with my Fuze v2 (bought refurbished from Newegg on 02/06/10.)
I will try charging while rockbox running to see if it still gets hot (while backlight and wheel light are off?)
I believe that the "lamp" plugin overloaded the LED drivers and damaged them somehow, so that the screen and/or wheel light draw excessive current (?) and cause the fuze to heatup.
