I have the problem with quantal too Toshiba L300D.

On suggestion I have from the internet was to run a

echo low >  /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile

on every start.

For me this does the trick !

I tried to compare powertop before and after but couldn't find a
decrease in power-consumption (just below 30W) as expected, but the
temperature according to sensors is definitly down.
