That's a good question. The first time it locked up it was enough for me and I put the option back in. It wasn't just the video card that locked up, the system was entirely locked up and unresponsive and required fsck after. You're more than welcome to add RADEON_IS_MOBILITY and see if your lock ups go away. I'm not sure which cards this is *supposed* to be set with. Andy
