Testing with maverick meerkat,

HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC
049D200000241210100020000
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0046] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M93 [Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series] [1002:9555] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

Now VGA_switcheroo works for me (of course need to exit from X).

Output of "dmesg| grep switcheroo"

[ 13.303595] VGA switcheroo: detected switching method \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.ATPX handle
