Are yours all ATI Mobility cards? They do seem to be more iffy than mainstream desktop cards, perhaps because every laptop vendor hooks the things up differently.

The one for the machine I'm on at the moment is 509031, and seems to already be assigned to you. I have to boot with nomodeset in order to get a usable display.
