Yes, this is a very old bug. I think it should be closed.

Title:
hard freeze just before ubuntu splash screen
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xorg
At about 1 in 5 times I get a hard freeze when booting Ubuntu Lucid:
it happens exactly when the system tries to switch to the splash
screen. I can see some funny red symbols at the top of the screen when
it freezes, so it looks to me like it's an xorg problem. It's a hard
freeze, so I need a power cycle to resume.
My computer is a Dell Inspiron 9400 and I have an ATI Radeon card. At
this point, I would be happy just to have a workaround, is there any
way I can avoid these freezes?
