Carrizo driver issue

For me Ubuntu 16.04 + kernel 4.6 work fine, temperatures are normal and fan noise is also normal. I'm not passing any special parameters to during boot. (Only problem is shitdown issue, it doesn't poweroff on shutdown, it was with defaut Xenial kernel also)
Dea1993 check with vga_switcheroo (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics) may be dGpu is also running. BTW I've iGpu only.

seems that the temperature are better and seems that firefox has no more freeze.
i'm not sure if it is only a case or this really help.
EDIT: the last kernel 4.7 rc1 seems that has solved the problem of temperature. Now temperature are normal and cpu fan is no more noisyLast edited by Dea1993; 01 June 2016, 03:49 PM.

Perhaps the bug/regression in the lenovo_ideapad module is the reason for not powering off during shutdown.

furthermore now i'm using gnome shell on fedora, and with AMDGPU driver and kernel 4.7, Gnome Shell is really slow, with no smooth animations.
i've tested also a notebook with an intel HD3000, and this is really smooth.
AMD driver still not good, is not possible that i can't use the DE that i want, because driver are bad.
i think that this notebook will never work nice with linux... so i think that my next notebook will have again an intel CPU, because AMD has too problems:
1) bad performance on games (intel HD5200 is slower than my radeon r6, but on linux has more fps)
2) sometimes has high temperature (also 70° only using a browser)
3) bad user experience with some DE

-> faster GCN 1.0 gpu -> works with radeon driver
So use radeon driver and blacklist amdgpu

furthermore, also if r6 is "slower" than dgpu r7 m360, is really faster than an intel HD5200.
QUOTE=debianxfce;n879412]
Fedora and gnome are buggy and slow, use Debian testing Xfce that is faster, stable and freely configurable. It is a rolling release os too, update every day or never but no need to reinstall and wait stupid os releases.
[/QUOTE]
now i'm using debian testing xfce, i've also updated kernel to 4.7rc4, but temperature still too high.
is a problem of driver, not a problem of distro or DE.
are AMD open source driver that are shit for carrizo APU.
i hope that newer kernel version will be better, i'm tired of this situation

Reason is shitty bioses in laptops, the hardware seems to be dependent on software drivers. In my Asus A88-XM-E motherboard, I have set Bios to control fans and cpu frequency. In linux you have tools to control fans and cpu frequency. Amdgpu does not support crossfire, so set R7 360M off via Bios or linux pci interface.

If that's not enough or if you use the same module for the GPU (integrated or second adapter) you actually use, bind the one you want to disable to pci-stub driver. Best way to do this is from kernel command line at boot. Just add pcistub="pci-stub.ids=..." followed by vendorID:deviceID codes you can find with lcpci -nns (your bus number from above) pcistub="pci-stub.ids=1002:6718,1002:aa80"
"
Can you monitor R7360M temperature with Xsensors to make sure it is off. Carrizo apus are low power and low temperature while r7 dgpu is not. Listen or measure that the laptop fan is spinning fast.

xsensors
i've this results
acpitz: 57°
k10temp: 53°
fam15h_power: (this tab is empty)
amdgpu: 0.0°
i think that k10 is cpu/apu
amdgpu is r7 m360 (so is really off then i think that isn't necessary that i follow your guide)
fam15 and acpitz i don't know what are

Acpitz can be a sensor near cpu, so there is something generating more heat, maybe your R7 360m. One option is to open the case and use indoor/outdoor digital temperature meter and put the sensor on top of the R7.

1002:6900
what i must do?
can i insert
pci-stub.ids=1002:6900
into /etc/default/grub?
