I'd like to add, that the lockups appear definitely _not_ to be TCL related.
Maybe this is not new to you, but in case ....  I tried to take some
screenshots to document the 'dark lightning' issue for the FlightGear
people:

I log into my X session, this starts several 'aterm's. In one terminal
window I set $RADEON_TCL_FORCE_DISABLE to 't'. In this window I'll start
FlightGear afterwards. After FlightGear comes up, I toggle the view (side
view is nicer to look at). Now I click into another window to start 'import'
(from ImageMagick) to take a screen shot of the correctly coloured
FlightGear window. In this moment the 'aterm' has the window focus. When I
click on the title bar of my FlightGear window I get back the FlightGear
window in foreground but the window does not get the focus back because the
X server locks up before.

I dont know how many reboots I did to take a single screen shot  ;-)

Slightly irritated,
        Martin.
