my specs:
Arch Linux 64-bit
kernel: 3.13.5-1-ARCH
xorg: 1.15.0-5
xrandr: 1.4.1-1
using primus: 2013 12 26
laptop model: Asus K55VJ-SX069H
graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce with CUDA® 635M 2GB DDR3 VRAM
CPU: INTEL Core i5 Ivy Bridge (3210M)
RAM: 8 GB
my problem
When I start any application via nvidia card card constantly overheats until it shutdown whole laptop because of too hot GPU. It definitely seems like a driver-related issue since previous versions worked just fine (sadly I can’t use them anymore because of new xorg version). It looks like driver just ignores graphic card’s fan (and don’t even use it) according to this output of nvidia-smi and differences between some tests on Windows 8 and Linux. I hope you’ll fix it as soon as possible since I have this problem already few months and I can’t play some games since integrated intel solution is too slow.
