Issue started after fresh install, no knowledge of earlier kernels. Laptop is currently broken and unavailable for testing, it suddently died in the middle of normal usage. Ruled out memory and reseted BIOS. Unsure of reason for malfunction but suspecting solderings. Will perhaps try baking in oven but most likely this laptop is finished :-(

I installed indicator-sensors to get a handle on the temperature and it's hovering at about 80C without much load at all. I managed to work around this by adding "radeon.runpm=0" to boot options and adding to /etc/rc.local: sleep 15 echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch to turn off the discrete GPU. Now temp is 50-61 degrees during normal use. I tried the Vivid and Wily LTS-kernels but the problem is still there. As a side note, fglrx apparently doesn't support my GPUs anymore but is still offered in Additional drivers. Installing them messed up my system and I had to remove fglrx manually in console, which was not nice. Do you think I should post a bug report on that, so fglrx is not offered for these GPU?
