Hi folks!!

Great news for all Amilo Users. Thomas mastered these strange hard-lockups on
Amilo A7600 series. After applying the patches the normal way, he changed the
following file:

/<whereyoursourcesare>/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel/radeon.h

He changed:

/* DMA customization:  */
#define __HAVE_DMA                         1
#define __HAVE_DMA_IRQ               1
#define __HAVE_VBL_IRQ                1
#define __HAVE_SHARED_IRQ       1

into:

/* DMA customization:  */
#define __HAVE_DMA                         1
#define __HAVE_DMA_IRQ               1
#define __HAVE_VBL_IRQ                1
#define __HAVE_SHARED_IRQ       0

THAT WAS THE REASON! Due to SharedIRQ enabled, the system locked when launching
X with DRI turned on, while USB, Sound Network,..., everything @ IRQ11 was
loaded.  Afterwards you have to recompile the module against your kernel as
described above. Then copy the recompiled module to 
/lib/modules/<your_kernel>/kernel/drivers/char/drm

Now everything works great. Performance could be a bit better, but I am happy to
report that 3D is now running on his and my Amilo A7800.

Perhaps it also helps on other notebooks troubling with IRQ hardlocks.

THANKS THOMAS, THANKS EVERYBODY :-)
