Comment:
I'm currently facing this bug on my system as well:

x86_64, 2.5G, ATI 9600 2xDVI, the latest Dapper (04.02.2006) with Kernel
2.6.15-14-amd64-k8. It is a fresh install from yesterday. Before, I used
the radeon driver and everything worked just fine.

Now everything runs fine only for a while, then suddenly the system
freezes. I can't provide any log output ... because there is no log
output (kmesg).

It seems to be gone once I boot the 2.6.15-14-amd64-server kernel. With
this kernel, however, DRI cannot be initialized. Thus I suppose, the
problem is related to the ATI fglrx acceleration code ... don't actually
know.

Thanks and ciao, phb
