Lee, 

I was having lockups of all sorts with my 9200 on RH9 with Flightgear
cvs.  I'm now running XFree86 cvs(which is actually easy to build) and
the updated DRM / DRI has fixed all such lockups.  Actually, I've
managed to hard lock my machine if I accidentally start two copies(fgrun
double-click frenzy) of flightgear or any other 3d app for that matter. 
I never was able to tie the lockups to anything specific such as
night/day, but I've never used the ATI drivers.  There are still some
rendering artifacts, like the flashing sky at night and the runway
lights *flashing/blinking* (not sure how to describe it), but they have
become tolerable.  After dealing with hard locks, rendering artifacts
are a blessing ;)  Good luck!  

-Simon.
