Hi I have this problem, I have an asus F3jp with Ati Radeon Mobility x1700.
I install ubuntu 9.04, but I can't install catalyst 9.3 cause xorg1.6 work only
with catalyst 9.4.
Catalyst 9.4 is only for now HD video card and so don't support my video
card.
There isn't problem with GUI or Compiz with Radeon or RadeonHD open drive, but
both drive don't have powerset! so my video card work full power always!
This make my battery life short and make my laptop very noisy cause full speed
fan and very very very HOT!
Anybody know how set the power of my video card low? I don't need all
video card power. For youtube and some film i think minimum power is
enought!
Sorry my English!
