I apparently solved my (8.10) problem Tuesday by switching to ATI's proprietary drivers. Should be xserver-xorg-video-radeon (lsmod showed radeon) -> xserver-driver-fgvlrx (was installed), what I did is just enable Proprietary in System|Administration|Hardware Drivers. The PC ran Compiz for more than 24 hours until now without a hitch, and that was testing all sorts of graphic games as a selection for Snow White's 7 grand-children as I call her ;-) Except that the interference-like problem I mentioned remains, as well as, what I didn't mention before, messages saying that X could not initialize; but just retry, it hasn't got a strong mind about that ;-) And, more Wine windows management problems I thought were gone when using Compiz. So, somewhat unpolished working, but working.
