Overheating on Open Source Radeon Drivers in openSUSE 12.2
Dec 19th 2012, 05:50

I have a Radeon HD 4650. I had been using the proprietary FGLRX drivers on openSUSE 12.1, and they were working well without issues. Now, due to AMD dropping support, I have to use legacy drivers which are not working well. On using the open source radeon drivers, I am facing severe overheating issues. The system gets really hot on almost no load, and it leads to a thermal shutdown. Is there any way to fix this?

My configuration is:
AMD Turion X2 2.2 GHz
ATI Radeon HD 4650
4 GB DDR2 RAM

I am using openSUSE 12.2 currently, with KDE

Thanks in Advance :)
