Hi...
I have a Laptop HP Pavalion Dv6-3031ss, it have an ATI Radeon HD 5470 
and an Intel HD.... by default, when Linux start the active card is the 
Intel HD, I don't know if the ATI is powered or not. I use Kubuntu 
Maverick 10.10 as OS. My first problem is that to slow and that is for 
the Video Card because KDE use a lot of video features. So I need to 
turn off my Intel Card and work with the ATI card....
Here are the results of my tests...

I really need a solution because I don't want to use Windows any more... 
I have been using Linux since 2007 but just like a normal user. I tried 
to recompile Linux kernel but it doesn't work either...
Please I need to figure out how to solve this as soon as posible...
Figure out that on the instruction iasl -d DSDT.dat I had a Segmentation 
Failed....
Cheer and hopping to heard from you soon...
