Hey folks,
Any news on this? The only thing I can add is that I was using Ubuntu (Gnome) and I don't have this problem there. It seems to be a problem with KDE and ATI. I just switched back to Kubuntu and I'm surprised to see that the problem persists.

As mentioned above, using a different driver avoids this issue. Also, I don't have the problem if I try to restart/shutdown from KDM. It only happens in a logged-in account (I've also tried creating new ones or even reinstalling Kubuntu, for that matter).

I think we should fix this for the upcoming release, it's really annoying to see the computer crashing all the time. Again, I would be happy to provide any relevant information.

Thanks.
