Power management for AMD radeon driver is coming!

This is really good news!

As I said here, my laptop runs 20 degrees centigrade hotter with open-source radeon compared to the proprietary Catalyst driver.

Apparently AMD is listening, they have just pushed 165 patches; among them is the dynamic power management similar to what Catalyst has.

Looking forward to Linux 3.11
