One thing to look into is how much the "video=ofonly radeon.agpmode=-1" settings slow down the GUI. Some things, such as clicking on an icon, are quite sluggish but I don't know how to find where the fault lies.

And even that is stuck with whatever shape it happened to have at the time it froze. The steps I have to cause the freeze are run Ubiquity to start the installation open a terminal, run Ubuntu-bug and let it launch Firefox. It will freeze every time then. Even the consoles (ctrl-alt-f1 etc) are unavailable. What kind of information can I collect and how?
