I am VERY to report that the instructions given by #91, installing the
3.3.6 kernel, completely resolves the problem. I am using the non-pae
kernel and the stock xorg packages. Initially I was using edgers to get
access to the newer ati drivers (which work quite well if it weren't for

So I used the lowlatency kernel and got an authentic kernel panic when
playing an h.264 video through vlc (using the XVideo output). So either
