David Ayers, thank you for providing the requested information. Regarding your comments: >"Thanks, put proprietary drivers are not a option for me. I'd rather stick >with the external cooling."
Fair enough. >"Despite the error messages, the ubuntu-one files seem to by syncing now. And the psensor preference changes took effect after I killed the process and restarted it. So'll still continue test with this image. Yet it will take a few hours before enough files are synchronized to cause the ubuntuone-sync daemon to saturate the CPU after logging in." As a WORKAROUND, would governoring the CPU, in addition to the low power_profile provide further heat reduction via: sudo apt-get -y install gnome-applets && sudo cpufreq-selector --cpu=0 --governor=powersave && sudo cpufreq-selector --cpu=1 --governor=powersave >"You added a 'needs-full-computer-model' tag, yet you have added the computer model int eh summary title. Was this some automation mechanism, or do you need some more information? I will still attempt to execute the apport-collect command." Nope, just manual mis-tag on my part. As well, would powertop tunables provide further reduced power consumption noted in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PowerManagement/ReducedPower ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1080350 Title: 1002:9552 [Compaq Presario CQ61-320EG Notebook PC] CPU Overheating with ATI driver Radeon HD Mobility graphics To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/1080350/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
