  I'm starting this new report on behalf of what Bryce Harrington  said
  here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-
  ati/+bug/108527/comments/143
  
  OK, first things first:
  
  What happens?
  X freezes on my Thinkpad T42 with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9600 when running 
Compiz.
  There are no problems at all when Compiz is disabled.
  This problem started with Gutsy and persists with an up-to-date version of 
Hardy Alpha5
  
  Also: I have a Radeon 9600XT on my main machine which has no problems
  whatsoever with running Compiz on Gutsy – that's why I think this is a
  problem with Mobility chips.
  
  What are the symptoms?
  I can run Ubuntu with Compiz fine for some minutes. Then all of a sudden the 
fan kicks in and X just freezes.
  
  What works?
  Only the movement of the mouse cursor.
  Restarting the system via SysRq REISUB
  
  What does not work?
  Everything else. I can't even restart X via [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Backspace] or log 
into a console via [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[F1]
  
  
  Infos.
  I followed the steps in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXorg so I'm adding 
that output here.
  X froze prior to the backtrace.
  
  I'm also attaching Xorg.0.log, Xorg.0.log.old and the output of lspci
  -vvnn _right after the crash_ (recieved via ssh) as well as the
  xorg.conf
  
  [Note]
  For anyone else seeing freezes on ATI, the issue is highly hardware-specific. 
 Unless you have the exact same hardware (Mobility 9600) and your backtrace 
shows it failing in drmCommandWrite(), please file a NEW bug.  Include your 
Xorg.0.log's, xorg.conf, backtrace, and the output of lspci -vvnn in your new 
bug.
