Are the permissions on kdestartupconfig or the ati radeon driver files 
being changed somehow? When you get everything running ok, look for the 
kdestartupconfig and the ati radeon driver files and do a ls -l should 
show the permissions. If you do ls -l >filename with filename being a 
known location, if it happens again you can check the permissions and 
owner of the files and change them back if needed.
Good Luck Jim K
