I am thrilled to find an answer to this issue. I'm on an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ with a built in ATI card. I have tried every ATI driver/config combo under the sun to no avail.
I am willing to try this out and help you test. I am on 7.10 right now. I reinstalled from 8.04 in hopes to fix this. It seemed that 7.1 wasn't doing it until about 20 min ago. I had been up for 4 days with no problems. (mostly rsh'ed in though, screen stayed off most of the time. Do I need to have update to 8.04? I have nothing against upgrading if it's easier, or will give you better results for testing. Is there a "tried and true" way of crashing it that you know of? Seems like I only blow up in Firefox after a random amount of time. I am anxious to help out! Untill then, I am going to try the workaround.
