Once more: This point of view isn't still shure. I'm quite new in using ATI
graphics hardware, but I remember a bug I reported for the Intel graphical
driver, where X was hanging and the problem has been definitely in the driver,
even if the Intel graphics driver developers found it late, because it has been
some kind of pitfall and tricky. There were also similar circumstances as for
the chipset this is initially reported for here, that they tested on newer
hardware and noone else had a testsystem with an older graphics chip they
officially supported, but were't really testing.
