Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.9.0-1+lenny4
We are using Debian Linux on 600 HP thin clients and about once every
2-3 weeks those employees that have compiz enabled crash the Xserver.
It seems to always happen when a dialog is closing. For instance it
happens when you select your printer in OpenOffice and the dialog is
just about starting to close. It also happens when you click on Send in
an email message in Evolution and the child UI begins to close.
Unfortunately it's not easy to replicate.
I was able to see the crash in the xserver log as indicate below:

We are using ATI 9250 PCI based video cards.
Those people not running Compiz never see this issue, it's
definitely related to the 3D GNOME desktop.
