Discussed this with Marc (the reporter), and I have a T42 with the same radeon chipset, but with 32MB of video ram instead of the T30's 16MB. I can login into the desktop, but after a while compiz dies.

I have this in dmesg:

This is a very serious regression over Jaunty, where X ran well (with a couple of xorg.conf tweaks). In Lucid, this occurs with or without an xorg.conf (the above was from without). This may affect LTS upgrades significantly.
