It sound like the problem I had ... but here the system froze immediate.
And it did not matter which options were disabled or enabled; it always
froze. with or without DRI. 

With Benjamin's patch included there was no stability problem in the
last 6 hours.

I'm using 7.0RC4 running on vanilla-source 2.6.15-rc6.

The only problem here is with DRI permissions ... but i'm not sure if
it's a udev problem or a bug in the radeon-drm-module.

1st X start everything is working (including DRI/DRM), second
run /dev/dri/card0 has lost the permissions originally set by udev
(root:video 660) and DRI even fails if applications running as root user
(root:root 660)...
