I have seen the 'freezing' problem frequently on a Thinkpad T42 with a Radeon 9600 Mobility card (64MB) when desktop effects are enabled and when using the 'ati' driver. The output of lspci -vn is attached. Strangely enough, I have not seen the problem on my desktop, which has a Radeon 9600 XT card (128MB). I don't know if it makes a difference, but the laptop install was done from the release version of 7.10, while the desktop install was done starting at Gutsy Tribe 5 and then upgrading packages with auto update.

I will attach the output of lspci -vn from my desktop shortly.
