hi,
i've experienced such problems too. however, i have a ati radeon 9200 gfx card
but the same motherboard.
i fixed this problem by not loading the dri module in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
there is another thread in this list, that says 64bit X on 64bit kernel would
work fine with dri. for me it doesn't.
hth, knue
