It's interesting that both Blender and Neverball work for you.  I tried
them (about a month ago) with the r300 driver from CVS, and was getting
immediate lockups when launching those two applications.

I had immediate lookups only when I forgot to start fglrx or when I tried applications like oolite.
 

Now I am using laptop with i915 (BTW I am visiting Silicon Valley!) and I realized that it's very stable. Even games which weren't working with r300 (maniadrive, cube) - work correctly.

Loading libGL with dlopen is an interesting thing, both r300 and i915 have problem with it (in Quake2 and nexuiz) - LD_PRELOAD is required, but mga works "out of box".
