[Bug 1535442] [NEW] Pavilion g7 laptop becomes too hot
Public bug reported:
After install and updates this laptop still becomes VERY hot. I
installed indicator-sensors to get a handle on the temperature and it's
hovering at about 80C without much load at all.
I managed to work around this by adding "radeon.runpm=0" to boot options
and adding to /etc/rc.local:
sleep 15
echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
to turn off the discrete GPU. Now temp is 50-61 degrees during normal
use.
I tried the Vivid and Wily LTS-kernels but the problem is still there.
As a side note, fglrx apparently doesn't support my GPUs anymore but is
still offered in Additional drivers. Installing them messed up my system
and I had to remove fglrx manually in console, which was not nice. Do
you think I should post a bug report on that, so fglrx is not offered
for these GPU?
