The temperatures you've mentioned will not kill your laptop.

There is not much of a benefit in (re-)posting "power management does not
work", most people are aware about this and working on it one way or the other.
If you really want to help, be more understanding and work with the nouveau
team rather than posting annoying replies.

Btw have you realised the _massive_ amount of work that PM is ? The AMD/ATI DPM
code that landed in linux 3.11 is over 50kloc and all of it was done by the
vendor.

Thanks
