FYI, I've now tried neverputt in a window, instead of fullscreen, and I'm getting the same lockups as I was previously getting (full lockups, including mouse, requiring me to ssh in a reboot). It finally occurred to me to check dmesg:
[drm:radeon_cp_dispatch_swap] *ERROR* Engine timed out before swap buffer blit
Hmmm - can you try reducing the window size of neverputt ? And, perhaps, the refresh rate and resolution of your screen ?
thank you !

No luck. I setup my xorg.conf file to limit X to 640x480, and used xrandr to drop the refresh rate to 60... Launched neverputt at 640x480, fullscreen. Lockup was nearly instantaneous... The music continues, at least till neverputt dies, and the mouse moves around. Rebooted and tried again... Exact same result. At least when I was running it at 1024x768 on a mergedfb desktop of 2560x1024, I was able to play a hole or two of golf...
Two times now, I've tried running it at 640x480 on my large mergedfb desktop. I get further than I did when the screen resolution was 640x480, but not much.
I just tried two times now running it at 1280x1024 on my large mergedfb desktop, and it plays fine for a number of holes. Usually locks up between holes.
My conclusion is that these lockups are occuring when the framerate is at it's highest (ie. low resolution, low texture, low activity), which I believe is a situation someone else described on here not to long ago.
