Hi,

I have an old Asus laptop with a Mobility Radeon 9700 card:

$ lspci -nn | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility
Radeon 9600 M10] [1002:4e50]

I am using Xubuntu 11.04 with KMS and Gallium driver.

I would like to set the card to a lower power state because the fan goes often
high and the laptop gets hot. The problem is that these three files are
missing:

cat: /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method: No such file or directory
cat: /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile: No such file or directory
cat: /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_pm_info: No such file or directory

Does it mean that my card does not support power management?

Thank you very much for your help,

Roberto
