Public bug reported:
On my fresh Ubuntu 13.10 x64 installation, my ATI XFX Radeon HD5970 runs
over 75C when idle. This is obviously unacceptably high and there seems
to be insufficient means for adjusting the temperature by adjusting the
fan speed.
I tried to change card's power method and power profile (auto, default,
low, mid, high), but these did not make any significant differences:
sudo sh -c echo profile /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method
sudo sh -c echo high /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
