[Bug 748080] Re: ATI card fan is always on with opensource radeon driver
Proper power management for AMD/ATI Radeon R600 and newer hardware is finally available in the upstream 3.11 linux kernel.

I was once an active participator in the debian and gentoo forum, and relating to this bug, every answer I got is just switch to the profile you are using manually, or change it in sysinit. Another similar bug I have asked is that the sound-card driver always misread the hardware as another, and then the headphone and notepad speaker will have the same volume control (they will mute or speak at the same time). I have to rebuild the alsa and specify the model I want to use manually. Why I said it won't be fixed is that the developers don't concern it as a severe bug. You can just fix it after several simply tapping, and the developers are busy with more important projects such as Video Decode, MSAA and OpenCL, so they cannot spare a large amount of time dealing with this minor fault, which may needs a thoroughly deep scanning of the whole codes. That's why I said this sentence. Sorry it sounds too radicalism. Some other bugs are also observed but never got fixed, like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/consolekit/+bug/148454, confirmed in freedesktop, launchpad, debian and kernel bugzilla.

Then, do: $ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method to check what method you're machine is using It will very probably answer 'profile' If so, you can change the content of /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile to low, mid, auto and see what happens.

[Bug 748080] Re: ATI card fan is always on with opensource radeon driver
The bug affects me too..ati 5470 with radeon open-source driver..Ubuntu 11.10.. with the proprietary driver the fan slows a lot, but I can't run Unity 3d, just the 2d.. I had this problem from Ubuntu 11.04, like one or two months ago, not more.. so for me I think that there was a regression in the driver.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748080 Title: ATI card fan is always on with opensource radeon driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/748080/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug affects me too, since Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx". I am now using Ubuntu 11.04 and the bug is still present, so I decided to use the fglrx driver to speed down the fan.

Yes, this tissue present in open source driver all time, when I use it (several recent Ubuntu releases). So it isn`t regression. And yes again, I think, that it is known issue.

Great, thanks. Also, when did you first start noticing this issue with the open source driver? (Or has it always been this way with your hardware when running this driver?)
