[Bug 727620] Re: [Radeon HD 5650 and 5470] Driver crash during recovery boot and in normal boot (Regression from 2.6.38-3 to -4)

video to the radeon/descrete setting in the BIOS configuration makes it
function properly."

Answer: Yes it does. I tried that a while ago already, but can't (don't
want to) use that for regular running, because the radeon-card makes the
laptop-battery ruin out too fast. I read also that there's a
patched/hacked BIOS somewhere that allows to switch off the radeon-card
via BIOS, but if it can be solved with software I'd prefer that ;)
