** Description changed: - Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati - $ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile low + + When I use the opensource driver for my ATI card the notebook fan is + always spinning and temperature of outgoing air from fan is very high, + even when I set /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile to low and cpu + mode to powersave. With proprietary drivers (fglrx) I set video card + performance to "ondemand" (I forgot the exact name of this mode in ATI + control center) and cpu mode to ondemand, and the notebook isn't hot, + fans are not spinning (if I don't start flash, games or some similar app + with high cpu load). So with fglrx I can use the notebook on battery for + 1.5 - 2 hours and it's not hot, but with the opensource driver notebook + on battery is dead in 50 minutes, the fan is always on, it noise is + loud, and the notebook is very hot.
