For those having troubles with ATI based cards, try adding this to your Xorg.conf:

Option "KernelModuleParm" "agplock=0"

I found that it completely removed all my random lockups with my laptop (X600 based), especially when it was doing any 3D work or running Xgl.

A full list of other options are available here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=150854

Feedback on how effective this line is may assist the Ubuntu team to add some stability with ATI cards.
