Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

With my hardware - Mobility Radeon 3400 (RV620) - I have no power management with the opensource drivers, both ati and radeonhd. The system fans keep spining at high speed constantly even when the temperatures (cores and CPU) are very low.

Using fglrx I have power management. The fans increase and decrease speed as needed by the system.

Please contact me for more info if needed.
