I have dell inspiron 3521 i7 with hybrid graphics. I have tried everything
to stop AMD vga from working all the time. It heats the laptop and drains
the battery. I tried it on ubuntu 14, linux mint 17 and fedora 20.
I installed catalyst 14.9 and some other 14 versions. And then chose intel.
But nothing seems to work.
I reinstalled linux many times. Enabled POSIX. I saw in a forum that ubuntu
14 includes dynamic drivers for amd and that is why it cannot be disabled.
Sometimes, like in 1 out of 100 boots heating stops.
Do you guys know about this? Please tell me how to fix or include it in
your next driver version.
Thanks.
