The problem is that this user reports "I've tried setting the power (management) profile settings and dynpm, but nothing has changed, still running above 70 degrees Celsius."

I didn't get a prompt after that command, and all network connexions are stuck. I'll reboot it when I'm back home (the pc is at home, I'm at work), but in the meantime it means no more mails for me (it's also my mail server). I'll try to follow the bugzilla in the remaining time.

I have tried both "dynpm" and "low" settings, and while it does not lock up, it still runs hot - 60+ degrees, fan constantly on high.

With fglrx driver radeon-pci-0100 temp stays well below 60° C and fan doesn't run all the time. Unfortunately Radeon driver isn't really usable for me on my laptop, but thank you for improving it. Fglrx driver isn't really an alternative for me.
