Thank you for reporting this bug and trying to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't help you fix it as we don't have enough information. What video game were you playing? How long exactly? And most importantly what "how" is the video card broken?

The video-cards were new. I bought them from leasing. They are burned. How is it possible?

You overheated your cards. This is not an ubuntu bug. You need to raise this with the ati people. Marking as invalid

Please attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log. It's not clear whether you used -radeonhd or another driver.

Are the cards new or two years old? I don't understand. Feel free to update the bug description with more information.

I've got two pc. One of this with another os (Windows Xp) is 2 years old. It mount a 4600 video card.
Another Pc, with the same video-card, with Ubuntu 8.10, crashed.

Most likely, the fan was broken on this video card, from the start. If this was caused by software it would be a very serious issue, but we have no reason to believe it was the fault of the video drivers.

Did you install or configure the -radeonhd driver? Otherwise the -ati/-radeon driver is used by default.

This video was bought with another operative system (not Unix-based), later I installed Ubuntu 8.10 with Live CD Desktop 64bit and after the reboot the video-card was burned.
