Right - I have a HP Pavillion dm4 with same configuration but when I 
installed the Radeon drivers all I got was a very very black screen... 
no response whatsoever.
What distro, version are you using? Which version of Radeon did you install?

I am on Kubuntu 10.10 but am considering installing Natty Alpha as it 
has the latest kernel and I hope switching might work after that
