Better yet, can you try the attached patch on top of 2.6.38-rc4 or newer?

Subject: [PATCH] drm/radeon/kms: hopefully fix pll issues for real

The problematic boards have a recommended reference divider
to be used when spread spectrum is enabled on the laptop panel.
Enable the use of the recommended reference divider along with
the new pll algo. This should hopefully fix the issues across
the board.
