Thank you. modprobe.conf loads radeonfb however it is not loaded. I am 
not sure what driver is controlling the video. How can that be 
determined? Is there a tool that shows the link between the h/w config 
and the s/w config.

When I suffered from the radeon D2 bug, my T42 drew about 2--2.5W during
sleep.  Modprobing radeonfb brought it down to about 0.5W.

My new laptop has intel video, so I don't know if radeonfb is supposed
to work with new kernels.
