IBM Thinkpad R52 with X300: Gutsy Release Candidate, clean install and upgraded to all latest packages as of today.

Freezes appear as well, sometimes pretty quick after a few minutes, but at least after about 20 minutes. I use the ati open source driver. lscpi output is attached.

Remembering that the Gutsy RC *live* system seemed to work pretty well on my laptop with compiz enabled I tried that again today: I started the Gutsy 7.10 Final live system from CD and played around with compiz four more than half an hour. No freeze! Maybe that's a hint for someone?
