The patch, that Giacomo Perale posted on fdo bug 29389 with drm_kms_helper.poll=0 kernel parameter fixes the problem for me also. After over an ~2 hours of testing (1 hour of continous Nexuiz playing with bots) no freeze or any graphic glitches. Tested on default Ubuntu 10.10 kernel (2.6.35-22-generic + this patch). Before this patch I couldn't play for more than 3-4 minutes without freeze.
