Acer 4820TG - a problem with graphics cards on Linux

Recently I was struggling with running Ubuntu 10.04 on Acer Aspire Timeline X 4820TG. After I installed ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver X didn't start. I didn't have time to solve the problem properly but I found out that after I've changed SWITCHABLE mode to DISCRETE in a BIOS settings for graphics cards I'm able to start Ubuntu properly.
