I after have tried all bits known to me for preventing my laptop overheating due to AMD graphic cards with open source driver I am seriously thinking to install proprietary AMD Catalyst driver from Vi0L0's repositories. I have hybrid graphics in my laptop with discrete and IGP both being amd. The graphic card built into CPU (IGP) is 4xxxx series ([AMD/ATI] RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250]) where as the discrete is 5450 series. Now my dilemma is that which version of catalyst to install given that AMD has separated the drivers for 4xxx and 5xxx series. All the discussions and wiki talk about Intel/AMD or Intel/Nvdia or AMD/Nvidia hybrid graphics scenarios. I have been unable to find anything related to my scenario i.e AMD-AMD hybrid with one being 4xxxx and other being 5xxxx. Any clue on solving this scenario would be very helpful. What version or versions (if two drives needed) to install.

I intend to follow steps given in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMD_Catalyst. Also I mean to ask in the above post that is it possible to install two drivers catalyst and -stable and catalyst-hd234k (one for internal 4xxx and the other for discrete 5xxx)
