    OK thanks for the info. I'll just have to stick to Catalyst then and use AMDoverdriveCtrl for voltage control.

      monitoring

      How does one measure the temperatures and performance level of their radeon gpu? I can easily compile my own 3.11 kernel. Firmware? No problem. I've just never cared to bother finding out how to monitor the status with a Radeon before..

            As for the temperatures, they should be accessible via lm_sensors.

                You don't need any new ucode for power management on that chip, but you still need the ucode for the CP, RLC, and UVD.

                  I see the R600 is getting some fixes.
                  I'll go up on IRC and compile my kernel with the possible patches / give feedback.
                  Would be great if I could use my laptop with Linux.

                    I get a totally unstable system when booting on 3.11 rc3.

                    Seconds after complete booting, system hangs but my mouse is still alive.
                    When choosing 3.10.3 and doing the same thing it works fine.

                    AMD Athlon II x4 630
                    ATI 4850


                    I did download the updated firmware RV770_smc.bin from http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/

                    Now on /lib/firmware/radeon i have 3 firmware files for my card:

                    RV770_me.bin
                    RV770_pfp.bin
                    RV770_smc.bin

                    On the link theres only the _smc.bin file, so maybe i only need .smc and not the .me and .pfp?
