Which drivers have you installed for either the intel or the radeon card?

Not sure if you have tried this yet but https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hybrid_graphics

This walks you through how to manually fix the problem, however there is an AUR available: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51704
