I have just installed mesa from experimental. So the hang is triggered
immediatly when I start a gnome/compiz session: As before xorg occupies
all CPU time. But mouse and keyboard are still usable. Also the x
session could be closed by <ctrl><alt><backspace>.
In the original hang, xorg doesn't stop even on kill -9 !

I am not sure to upgrade also xserver-xorg-core to experimental when the
mesa of experimantal even faster causes the hang.
