Based on the descriptions here - particularly the fact that it goes away
with DRI disabled - this sounds a LOT like the AGPMode settings are
incorrect.  Please test this by adding this option to your
/etc/X11/xorg.conf's device section:

Section "Device"
   ...
   Option "AGPMode" "2"
EndSection

Valid values of AGPMode are 1, 2, 4, and 8.  4 is a typical default but
some hardware needs a different value.  AGPMode only comes into play
with DRI enabled - which is why the hangs go away with DRI disabled.
Also, it can be triggered by various things - starting a 3D game, a
suspend/resume cycle, starting up compiz, or even just booting up.

Anyway, if you find an AGPMode value that makes the issues go away, we
may be able to put in a 'quirk' so the Xserver always uses that value
for your particular combination of hardware.  To help us do this, please
test each of the 4 values and provide the following data:

  * AGPMode value(s) that work
  * Make/Model of laptop or motherboard 
  * Output of lspci -vvnn
  * Is the system all factory hardware, or have any parts been replaced?
  * Is there an AGP Mode in the system BIOS?
    - If so, is it set to the factory default?
