particularily long session : less than 1 hour.

Title:
  Screen lit off on iMac 12,2 after a while

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I'm running Ubuntu on an iMac 12,2 since november 2012. From time to
  time and more and more frequently the screen lit off. The only way i
  can get it on is to suspend/resume. But then, it lit off soon. I
  suspect some heating. Actually, the output of the cooling system is
  way hotter with Ubuntu than Mac OS X.

  So i would like to switch to the IGD card rather than the discrete
  one. But there is no vga_switcheroo.

  How to debug screen lit off ? How to detect screen heating ? How to
  disable discrete card ? Is it kernel ? Xorg ? Where to search ?

  Regards,
  Étienne
