Thanks for the prompt reply. I did as you suggested: git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati # last commit in upstream git is 94405eb1c9e4e0ababc6aef03b753d6ed9eb7838 cd xf86-video-ati ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr make make install same problem: computer locks up on X startup when switching from VT to graphical display. I applied the patch that I submitted in the original bug report: patch src/radeon_driver.c < ../lockup-fix.diff make make install and this fixed the lockup.
