Hi.
How is power management working on your graphics card with the Radeon
free software drivers? In my case, on an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3200,
the GPU gets very hot and the cooling fan works all the time making a
lot of noise. And I'm not the only one, see [1]. So I'm forced to use
fglrx, and it's working great for me (hibernate and suspend works
without any issue).
