Sure, but Bin Zhang says he doesn't have this problem, but has he has a R200
family graphic chip only, it is not really all that conclusive, since your
problem is probably with the r300 driver.
Do you know if it still freezes if you disable accel, and where you able to
see if the drm module is loaded even though dri is not used, since the drm
module is used for 2d accel too.
Also, debian-x, and/or a bug report against the X packages is probably a
better way to handling this than posting (only) to debian-powerpc.
