I can confirm Georg's note about 'Option "NoAccel"'. It prevents the freeze but
its then so slow that you may as well use the VESA driver.
I originally noted in this bug that the cursor is off-center (down and
to the right) on my mini-note before it freezes. If I use NoAccel then X
comes up but the virtual desk top is TOO BIG. If I had to guess, its
something like 1440x900 or 1680x1050. So, there's also a problem
detecting the LCD screen resolution.
I added:
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1280 768
EndSubSection
to the 'screen' section of the xorg.conf file. After rebooting, I had a
properly sized display. (FWIW, using 'Option "ForcePanel"' did not
detect the screen size correctly. I had to force the virtual desktop
size).
Ever the optimist, I then enabled acceleration (commented out the option
noaccel) with the explicitly sized virtual desktop. But, after rebooting, the X
server still hangs with the one difference being the mouse cursor is in the
center of the screen. I guess that counts as progress ;-)
