I'm a total novice but I have encountered these issues and for what it's worth these are the machine specs and solutions that I have used...

Hardware: Mac Mini PPC G4 (PowerPC 7447A @ 1250.00MHz) Radeon 9200

When running: Lubuntu 14.04.1
With: video=radeonfb: 1024x768-32@60
Result: running fine (no freeze) but with sluggish GUI i.e. slow window drag

When running: Lubuntu 14.10
With: video=radeonfb: 1024x768-32@60
Result: sluggish window drag and now freezing issue with only mouse cursor movement
With: video=ofonly radeon.agpmode=-1
Result: sluggish window drag but no more freezing issue

I haven't tried anything xorg.conf related as I consider this system currently in a usable state. I did go through the motions of the xorg.conf stuff under 14.04.1 but didn't changed anything as I have no idea what I would change. As I said, total novice. I would be happy to try something and report the results if someone would give me some direction.
