Bug#404738: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Freeze after rotating 3D view in Blender

[Sven Arvidsson]

Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.6.3-2
Severity: important

When rotating the 3D viewport with the middle mouse button in Blender
2.42a-5, X seems to freeze. The screen doesn't update and X does not
respond to keyboard or mouse input. The system itself does not seem to
crash as my music is still playing in the background, still I'm forced
to reboot.

I'm using a ATI Radeon 9100
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R200 QM
[Radeon 9100]
