I have the same problem:
Slamd64 (Slackware 64)
Kernel: 2.6.17-rc5
ATI onboard: Radeon XPRESS 200

I tried in KDE and Fluxbox with same results.
If I use "xine" (or any other software that require acceleration) 100% of the times it will hang when exiting or switching to other console.

I also noticed that my webcam (using spca5xx module) is now hanging after I installed ATI driver.

I will try the option proposed by "franceloc" (TerminateServer=true) and I will reply here to show my results.
