Ok, then it is DRI related definitely.

No worries, there is really no new information there, except that someone claims that with some older drivers it works for him. It's rather uncertain if it's the same problem, though, as most people complaining about this are using AGP card.

I don't know further options other than to leave the 3D disabled or try the latest development versions in case you want to provide further information on whether the problem has been finally fixed or not. Basically the git repositories from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/drm , git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa and git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati contain the latest kernel DRM module, DRI modules and the video driver. For the first two, there are some compilation + installation instructions at http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building which I just updated a bit. I would guess that the third one (the normal DDX video driver) is not needed since this is DRI related.
