xf86-video-ati git raises suspicion to freeze notebook

Hello,

the last two or three days I had some random freezes. I don't know if it's due to the low temperatures at the moment here in Germany and my undervolted cpu (although it was running stable the last half year with the same low voltages) or the git version of the radeon driver.  I disabled the testing repository and reinstalled xorg, ati-dri and radeon driver from extra.

I will report if my notebook continues freezing.

Hardware:
Centrino M
Dothan 1500Mhz
Radeon Mobility 9700 M10 64MB
2 Gigs of RAM

I've had freezes with it aswell, moved back to 6.12.4 and it went away.

Running a AGP Radeon 9800 PRO. I've also had massive screen-corruption when compositing was not on in the -git drivers.

I have the very same problem, but with the driver in extra (git version is in extra now)
Compiling the 6.12.4 solved the problem.

Same here. Had to go back to 6.12.4. Got an  ATI RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10].
