I have a Acer timeline 4810tzg-413g32mn. This laptop has a Intel and ATI GPU card. I have a dual boot with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.04. On Windows 7 the laptop runs cool and the fan runs about 10% of the time. The battery time is 5 hours or so.
On Ubuntu the Laptop is hotter and the fan runs all the time, because both GPU's are running. The battery lives for 2 hours or so. :( I don't know exactly Witch output I must place here so I copy past everything. Here, and hope I can help you. Here go's nothing... ______________________ console info ______________________ $ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name Aspire 4810T $ sudo dmidecode -s system-version V1.30 $ lspci -vnnn | perl -lne 'print if /^\d+\:.+(\[\S+\:\S+\])/' | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a42] (rev 07) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M92 LP [Mobility Radeon HD 4300 Series] [1002:9552] $ ** Attachment added: "acer timeline 4810 GPU info ;)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38841001/DSDT.dsl -- support graphics card hot switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312756 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
