I am experiencing the same random hangs when using kwin with desktop
effects: mouse movement possible, no updates or response of screen,
"clean" shutdown only possible using ACPI (power button).

I am running a fully up to date Jaunty using radeon with EXA
acceleration. Personally I find that the crashes do not occur (or maybe
less frequently) when using XAA instead of EXA. I've been experiencing
this bug for a long time (since KDE 4.1 was available for Kubuntu). I
have frequently tried using svn builds of the ati driver (from xorg-
edgers and tormodvolden ppa) but they always had the same problem.

Other than the random freezes, radeon + kwin effects works great, so
it'd be really nice if that last issue disappeared.

I have attached my lspci output.
