On Ubuntu, however, with the proprietary drivers installed, temp will stay below 60 for idle usage. (All this with "ondemand" cpufreq governor. With "performance" temp is steadily 75C, and the fan goes loud.)
I tried to switch Debian to use the fglrx driver following the steps suggested on the wiki [1], but I get into trouble. I'm unable to perform step 5, # modprobe -r radeon drm since I don't have the drivers loaded: debian-liv:/home/liviu# lsmod | grep -i radeon debian-liv:/home/liviu# lsmod | grep -i drm Could anyone suggest how to determine the driver currently used by the system?
