We have a number of SL 5.5 machines with ATI graphics cards. We have discovered that they freeze when using the ati proprietary driver (fglrx). I am guessing this is since the recent xorg-x11-server update on 7th October. They had worked fine previously, and they work ok if I revert to a default xorg.conf. Does anyone else see this problem, or even better, have a solution?
