Laptop with a ATI mobility GPU is crashing a large amount. I have tried both the radeon and radeon HD xorg packages and both are equally unstable. Not yet tried the -ati driver, chipset is not supported by the vendor drivers (fglrx).
System is no more stable with desktop effects disabled.
I have also experimented with the 2.6.34-rc7 and the 2.6.33 kernels, but both appear to be equally unstable.
Any tips on a workaround would be appreciated.
