unfortunately I am not able to use the radeonhd driver with my DELL XPS M2010 laptop with an ATI Radeon Mobility X1800 GPU. Whenever I start X with this driver I only see a black screen and the mouse cursor but nothing else. Although it is working better than the "radeon" driver it does not work as expected. Maybe the 20" screen size is the problem? I hope the attached logfile gives some clues to you.

I'm missing your xorg.conf, and have to ask you how you start the
Xserver. The default has lately been changed to display a solid black
background during startup (you can get the old raster image with
'X -retro').
Though you say you can see the mouse - that confuses me a bit. It's
typically off on startup with the current Xserver as well...
