[Bug 557829] Re: [RS780MC] overheats computer
Here's what upstream has told me about this bug: 557829 27705 RS780 Overheats computer I suppose the new radeon pm stuff I'm working on should help. The oem's are supposed to design the system to deal with the default clocks, but it appears perhaps they have not. This also might be an acpi issue. It's likely the oem uses a acpi controlled fan for both the GPU and CPU so the fan control is out of our control. I've updated the comments. My latest pm patches are here: http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/pm3/ you can either enable dynpm (where the driver changes the engine clock on the fly) or you can manually set a lower power mode. Hopefully we can get a preliminary version in for 2.6.35. As an alternative which may also be useful in other cases, I've attached a patch to disable acceleration in the drm. This should keep temperatures down as it doesn't use the engine. It may also be useful for some of the other bugs with accel/gart related issues. It uses shadowfb when X starts, so performance is pretty good. Basically boot with radeon.accel=0 to disable accel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557829 Title: [RS780MC] overheats computer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/557829/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 557829] Re: [RS780MC] overheats computer
This bug affected me too. I got my Natty beta 1 fresh installed yesterday, at first I feel my hardware become hotter than they are in Maverick. As lm-sensors results, CPU temp is now around 64-70 and GPU is around 70-72 at idle, this kills my hand. I think this is about Unity 3D related issue.

[Bug 557829] Re: [RS780MC] overheats computer
This is still valid for natty and is critical at least on my machine as the stock Ubuntu would not last even for 30 minutes under the load. Reading through the web I saw this actually helping in the /etc/rc.local: #echo dynpm /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method echo profile /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method echo auto /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile I tried dynpm, but that does not help. Using profiles is more stable and allows to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557829 Title: [RS780MC] overheats computer -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The situation should be greatly improved in kernel 2.6.35. See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_itempx=ODE5Mg and http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_itempx=ODIyOA This kernel is being used in the upcoming Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat. If you want to try this on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, a PPA of kernel 2.6.35-rc6 can be found at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/ The final version of kernel 2.6.35 should be available soon. -- [RS780MC] overheats computer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
