Hi Bryce and all,
I'm very sorry that I am reporting so late on this but I didn't have the time
to upgrade to Intrepid on my Thinkpad.
Now that I did, I am sorry to report that the freezing problem still exist.
BUT there is a workaround for anyone who's affected (pointed ou to me by Alex
Deucher):
You need to set AGP mode to 1 in your Xorg configuration file.
Just add this line to the Section "Device" of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Option "AGPMode" "1"
I have added my xorg.conf for reference.
Unfortunately, it seems there can not be done much about this problem by Ubuntu.
Quoting Alex Deucher:
"There are just too many combinations of agp cards and chipsets that only work
at specific settings (some only work at 1x, others only work at 4x or 8x,
etc.). We've tried both defaults in the driver, but someone's combination
always breaks."
