For people using Ubuntu, the first release candidate (3.11-rc1) of the 3.11 kernel is available at <a href="http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/">http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/</a> and instructions on how to install and uninstall it are available at <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds</a> Fedora users can get the 3.11-rc1 kernel from Rawhide at <a href="http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/development/">http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/development/</a> For more information about using Rawhide, see <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Rawhide?rd=Rawhide">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Rawhide?rd=Rawhide</a> Users of other Linux distributions will need to obtain the 3.11 kernel by other means. For now, to use this power management for the AMD/ATI Radeon you will need to select it at boot by adding radeon.dpm=1 to your GRUB kernel boot options as described at <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting#Editing_the_GRUB_2_Menu_During_Boot">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting#Editing_the_GRUB_2_Menu_During_Boot</a></pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
