Comment 25 for bug 195051

I'm sorry, I don't know which version of the radeon driver is in debian's xserver-xorg-video-ati packages, I hope you can help me out here.

Anyway, here's the problem:
On xserver-xorg-video-ati versions greater than 1:6.6.3 (like in Debian Lenny or Ubuntu Feisty) the X server freezes when using Compiz or other 3D applications like tuxracer.

With Compiz on Gutsy (xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.7.195) or Hardy (1:6.7.0) it takes about 20 minutes until it freezes, sometimes less.
X freezes immediately when trying to run a 3D game.

This is not the case on a current install of Debian testing (Lenny) or Ubuntu Feisty.

I started a bugreport on Launchpad with additional information: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195051

And here's another report for that issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108527

I couldn't find any information if the problem is already known around here.
Please let me know if you need any further informations.
