I can see two separate issues in the logs:
1. Xorg crashed inside the radeon X driver.
2. The kernel crashed inside the intel kernel driver.
It's unlikely that "Intel is not being used" because the logs seem to show that it is.
We should focus on one problem per bug report so let's look at "Laptop was draining battery too fast". While the problem is happening, please run 'top', then maximize the window, take a screenshot and attach it here.
Separately please check your system for crash reports and create new bugs for those: /wiki.ubuntu. com/Bugs/ Responses# Missing_ a_crash_ report_ or_having_ a_.crash_ attachment
