Last month I upgraded to Hardy via the upgrade. I'm almost certain that I did not have this problem until today when I reinstalled directly from the full installer disk.

In case this might be a shared symptom:
My computer is taking a longer time to boot, and just about every 10 minutes my laptop monitor goes black. The external monitor looks normal and I have control of the mouse - but both monitors are unresponsive and I have to ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X.

Other than that, I too have the DRI unlocking / locking bug and I have tried using the same xorg.conf file that was working for me with the Hardy upgrade and before since Fiesty.

(see xorg.conf attached)

I have tried several xorg.conf versions - all result in the 10 minute black out - and as far as I can tell, also result in the DRI unlocking error.
