As written in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41762,
I have "Mobility Radeon HD3650", and as I understand it is based on R600
chipset.
The feature matrix on the RadeonFeature wiki page says all the power
saving/management features are implemented for this card.

But power saving doesn't seem to work. The laptop overheats and shuts down
before I even get to the LiveCD desktop/shell to be able to switch to the
power_profile "low".

Do you know if this is an error on the wiki page, or a bug in the radeon
driver?
