I suspect your problem is caused by your previous glrx driver installation. It is known that ATI proprietary driver overwrite some Xorg libraries. Try to follow this guide to remove all signs of glrx from your system and then to reinstall Xorg driver: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver > Here > is some packages I have installed, maybe you have some idea what driver > I'm using > > firmware-linux-nonfree > xserver-xorg-video-radeon > radeontool > libdrm-radeon1 > xserver-xorg-video-ati The driver installed on your system is open source ATI Radeon driver. But again see my advise above. You can find the reference to the problem in this Debian guide too: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Debian I'm quite positive that your problem is in not completely removed glrx libs, since my system get frozen quite often exactly you describe it, when using glrx. Since I removed it following the links above and reinstalled Xorg driver my system stopped freezing. Though I'm still fighting to make compiz working. My card is Radeon HD 5500. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
