Just one more comment, sometimes i get the gnome environment with jaunty and intrepid using the radeon driver, but no mouse function, and no keyboard function. Also i takes a very very long time for the gnome menu to come about 2 minutes, first i get a black screen with blinking cursor, then after 1 minute i see the screen i get immediately after bootup (the manufacturer bios screen), disrupted though, then it get black again and then after some time slowly the gnome menu comes, but only when i start x from the console (using startx). on a fresh startup it always fails.

Hope this will give you more insight.
