I am on the beta of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) and I'm glad to tell you this issue seems to be gone for good.
I did not need to create a xorg.conf and set something manually this time.
Compiz works out of the box and does not cause X to freeze.
I even tried running "Extreme Tuxracer" and while the game runs horribly slow, it does not freeze.
According to my Xorg.0.log, I am using the radeon driver so I consider this fixed.
Thank you.
