At work, so don't have the name of the conf file
handy, but I had a similar prob with my 350, until I
changed the tuner value for 39/2 I think, and did the
lspci -v, and edited the XF86Config4 to put the hex
value from the lspci into the config.

Found some help here (Debian based)
http://knoppmythwiki.homelinux.org/?id=HowTo

Best,

Indy
