Yes, this is where I started from %) But
root@BOX:~# ls /sys/kernel/debug/
bdi  bluetooth  dri  gpio  ieee80211  mce  pktcdvd  sched_features tracing
 usb  x86

root@BOX:~# grep switcher /proc/kallsyms
...
ffffffffa01017c0 t i915_switcheroo_can_switch   [i915]
ffffffffa0101800 t i915_switcheroo_set_state    [i915]

I guess this is because i need radeon drivers? Will catalist suffice or i
need those supplied with kernel?


Yes, this is it,

root@BOX:~# modprobe radeon
root@BOX:~# dmesg | tail -1
[16309.126443] [drm] Initialized radeon 2.3.0 20080528 for 0000:01:00.0 on minor 1
