Thread: HP Pavilion dm4-3002ea


i've installed ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit) on hp pavilion dm4-3002ea (http://h40059.www4.hp.com/uk/homelap...erience=direct) . work ok except laptop fan been on , hot air comming out of it. believe due graphics card.

laptop has radeon graphics card (hd 7470m). on preferences => system info see driver been used "intel® sandybridge mobile"

when activating "ati/amd fglrx driver" using "additional drivers", fan stops working , no more hot air comes out of system falls compatibility mode, i.e. gnome 3 in "fallback" mode.

i've tried downloading , installing amd/ati drivers web site rendered ubuntu unusable , had reinstall.

ideas how make work without overheatting?

thanks,

kostas
