Title:
  CPU Overheating with ATI driver Radeon HD Mobility graphics

Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver:
  Confirmed
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ever since upgrading from Maverick (with GNOME Classic) to Precise
  (using Unity 2D since using the default Unity makes the situation
  worse) my note book regularly overheats with normal usage:

  I've been regularly using:
  echo low | sudo tee /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile

  I've am also using psensor to warn me if the temperature rises above
  92°.  When 'idle' the temperature is at about 80°.  If the CPU is used
  (merely starting eclipse and letting all the the startup validation
  processes finish) it quickly rises to 88°.  If the usages is sustained
  (rebuilding a java project) the temperature oscillates between 95° and
  98°.  If I do anything else that adds to the load (ie. if the
  temperature is >98° for short period of time), the system freezes, but
  the everything remains on, fans and CPU temperature stays up.  I need
  to turn off the notebook by keeping the power button pressed.

  Note that this system overheats /with/ the low power profile.

  Here are some general stats about this system, please let me know, if
  I can provide further information:
