I still experience hard systen freezes with latest drivers.  Only workaround
is to disable AGP completely (radeon.agpmode=-1).  Starting KDE4 with OpenGL
compositing enabled freezes the system every time; with firefox it takes a
while.  This started happening with xf86-video-ati git releases around
mid-april 2008, with and without KMS.  (Mobility 9700, intel 855PM).
