I've been experiencing random hard lockups on a oldish HP Pavilion zv5000
laptop that has a 

RS300M AGP [Radeon Mobility 9100IGP] [1002:5835]

video card.   It seems to be using the r200 driver.  When this happens
crtl-alt-backpsace/DEL or sysreq-alt-b, etc., do nothing and I have to cycle
the power.   I've tried lots of things to get a core and/or backtrace and/or
oops... but have been unsuccessful;  specifically, I've set up remote consoles,
redirected things to files, set 

Section "ServerFlags"
#       Option  "NoTrapSignals"  "true"
#       Option  "IgnoreABI"  "on"
        Option "AutoAddDevices" "on"
        Option "Log" "flush"
EndSection

in my xorg.conf file.

Here's what seems to be involved:

1.  I'm always in X
2.  I have a window that extends or is moved offscreen to the left.
3.  I move the mouse offscreen to the left.

Unfortunately, these things don't always trigger the problem.

Sorry for the pathetic bug report, but it's all the information I have.


Finally, I have another machine (a desktop) that is running the same software
(distribution, git-Xorg, etc.) but which uses the nouveau driver.  I have no
problems on this machine.
