My Radeon locks the machine hard, meaning no network, no nothing, only
can press the reset/power switch. I have seen previous reports here with
the same problem, but there was talk about that AGP might be the
problem, but i have a PCIe card (01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI
Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] ).
That card worked fine with the old Xorg before the switch to mod-X.
For what it's worth, the ATI Radeon R250 on my Thinkpad T42 works just fine using the
xorg ati driver in modular X.
