I can confirm this (as I have this exact laptop, using it now in fact) though I did not test it recently. I think I logged this as another bug too, which I'll try to find.

I found the other bug, which I logged about a year ago: #2675. I started looking through the messages Scott linked to, but since then the X.org Radeon code has changed a lot. When it comes to drivers I don't know what I'm doing, and I'm not sure what to change in our driver to make it work. But I may keep looking at it since I like this laptop and would like it to work with Haiku. Though I guess there is always VESA mode...
Anyhow, I'm closing this bug as a duplicate.
Here's a similar report on a linux mailing list that might help in debugging this: http://osdir.com/ml/linux.acpi.ibm-acpi.devel/2007-11/msg00033.html
