The component field of this report says Radeon. It's unlikely for fglrx
and radeon to be affected by one and the same bug. It's possible that
fglrx has a similar bug though.

  X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI X300

Bug description:
  i just installed the new ubuntu 7.4 on my laptop toshiba m40x with ati x300.
  i've enabled desktop effects with no window wobbling and with cube rotation.
  it works quite well but sometime, without any clear reason, the desktop 
freezes completely (happened simply moving the mouse on an icon or opening a 
new application):
  the mouse moves but can't interact with the desktop
  no chance to ctrl-alt-bksp, or to change console (ctrl-alt-f1), keyboard is 
not responding
  i have to shout down the computer from the power button. (restarting 
everything works again but occasionally some new bugs appear)
  Don't know how to give more informations.

  there are a number of other minor but annoying bugs correlated, i don't know 
if they have to be posted here or in the compiz bugsite.
  they happen quite frequently and are:
  after maximizing a window it is not possible to unmaximize from the title bar 
icon (only from the bottom panel)
  the number of workspaces resets to 1 and the cube is not able to rotate
  some windows are not refreshed and the content is not visible (as bug 91810)
  some windows are visible in every workspace
  and more..

  [Note]
  There are numerous unrelated -ati errors that can cause freezes in X that are 
particular to specific hardware or usage scenarios.  The original bug 
reporter's specific issue was resolved, so if you are also experiencing an X 
freeze it is probably unrelated to this bug.  PLEASE REPORT YOUR ISSUE AS A 
SEPARATE BUG.  Don't reopen or add confirmations onto this one.
