I experience system wide freeze: Compaq Presario r3065us, P4 mobile, ATI 9200.

I use LiveCD, not being too brave to install an unstable OS.

The funny thing is that if I boot the system in the single mode ('init S' kernel option), drop to the root shell and start XOrg by calling startx, there are no hung ups.

If I boot the system in multi mode - it hangs in approx. 1 minute.

So, I'd guess that it's not the XOrg's fault, but the kernel's. I wonder if anyone can try the karmic kernel, and see if it works or not.
