Hi,

same issue here on a PC with AMD Athlon and Intrepid 32 bit, Radeon
9600XT and radeon driver.

Screen freezes, only the mouse cursor moves.  Keyboard is dead.

System is alive, though. Only X is locked up.

Ssh-ing from another host I can see the Xlog.  It mentions "out of order 
events" and Xorg having probably entered an infinite loop.
Message is repeated many many times.

Xorg only terminates with a hard kill signal (term is not enough).
As it is restarted everything looks fine.

I am experiencing this both with XAA and EXA.
I was not experiencing any problem with the fglrx driver (apart from the fact 
that support for my card is now being dropped).

Seems to have nothing to do with unplugging or plugging the mouse (at
least it happens even leaving it nicely in place).

Seems to affect also REDHAT:

And Mandriva

Very nasty bug, as _you loose all what you were doing when killing
Xorg_.
