I have just attached the relevant Xorg.0.log file. I hope you will find out something, because it is quite annoying to work with this laptop when DVI or DisplayPort is used (fans runs at maximum RPM level and are very noisy). Now I still use VGA output due to this reason.

BTW, I observed similar fan (or video heating) problems even with LVDS display, when I was using earlier xf86-video-intel driver (version 2.3.2 and 2.4.3) and xorg-server (ver. 1.3.0 and 1.4.2) with 2.6.27 kernel.

Thanks in advance!
