[Bug 1080350]
I realize that this is several years old but it's the closest match to
the symptoms I'm searching.
The last comment was "it works" but my AMD 6870 based desktop card rages
with fans at full speed from start up to shut down.

Title:
1002:9552 [Compaq Presario CQ61-320EG Notebook PC] CPU Overheating
with ATI driver Radeon HD Mobility graphics
Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver:
Confirmed
Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Ever since upgrading from Maverick (with GNOME Classic) to Precise
(using Unity 2D since using the default Unity makes the situation
worse) my note book regularly overheats with normal usage:
I've been regularly using:
echo low | sudo tee /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
I've am also using psensor to warn me if the temperature rises above
92°. When 'idle' the temperature is at about 80°. If the CPU is used
(merely starting eclipse and letting all the the startup validation
processes finish) it quickly rises to 88°. If the usages is sustained
(rebuilding a java project) the temperature oscillates between 95° and
98°. If I do anything else that adds to the load (ie. if the
temperature is >98° for short period of time), the system freezes, but
the everything remains on, fans and CPU temperature stays up. I need
to turn off the notebook by keeping the power button pressed.
Note that this system overheats /with/ the low power profile.
Here are some general stats about this system, please let me know, if
I can provide further information:
This started after the upgrading from Maverick. I'm currently running
Precise with the 2D Unity desktop.
