Thanks, and sorry for the slow reply.

Does running the following commands help?

	echo profile >/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method
	echo low >/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile

See [1] for some details on that.  Presumably some day dynpm will be
the default.

Also, what kernel do you use these days?  Please attach full "dmesg"
output from booting.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
