Bug #: 50327
Summary: CPU power consumption and temperature way to high when
using radeon drivers.
Classification: Unclassified
Product: xorg
Version: unspecified
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: medium
Component: Driver/Radeon
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
QAContact: [email protected]
On my laptop (HP Compaq 615, AMD M780G/Radeon HD3200, Athlon QL-66, OS:
Slackware -current) the temperatures (and with that the power consumption) off
the CPU are way to high and near the critical rate when I use the radeon
drivers (I first thought the overheating is caused by the GPU, but after some
tests that doesn't seem to be the case). The system works fine with the
Catalyst drivers, about 15-20°C cooler than with the free drivers.
I don't know which information to include, so please inform me which additional
information you need to make any sense out of this.
