ATI Card Radeon 9600 Pro freeze problem

I've got some problems with this drivers...
My card is: ATI Card Radeon 9600 Pro
Kernel: 2.6.15-ARCH
Installation (or compliation) of this package goes very well smile
My xorg.conf looks like

Section "Module"
    Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension
    SubSection  "extmod"
      Option    "omit xfree86-dga"   # don't initialise the DGA extension
    EndSubSection
    Load        "type1"
    Load        "freetype"
    Load        "glx"   # libglx.a
    Load        "dri"   # libdri.a
EndSection

(...)

    Option "ForceGenericCPU"            "no"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0"    # vendor=1002, device=4150
    Screen 0
EndSection

But here the horror begins... Any time I switch to virtual console (Alt+Ctrl+Fn), then goes back to X and try to move a window everything freeze except mouse. The only way out is hard reset. By the way, I've notcied that it happens when loading "dri" module. But without "dri" there is no direct rendering. Is there any way to have "dri" and non-freezeing X-server? wink

Re: ATI Card Radeon 9600 Pro freeze problem

Ive got nearly the same problem:

Maybe its a bug in combination of the ATI drivers and the Kernel 2.6.15
