I think quodlibetor has the same concern I have: this may not be a
ATI+Compiz bug which is why he posted and why I post here as well.

I have the same freezing issue on 2 different machines: one desktop with
a 7900GS nVidia card (restricted driver, no compiz!) the other a laptop
with onboard X300 (opensource driver, compiz enabled). A third laptop
with nVidia 8600GT and Compiz enabled has no problems. The only real
difference is that this third machine is a Gutsy Tribe 5 installation
with all updates, the two others are fresh Gutsy release installs.

FWIW, I have seen 3 different kind of freezings on both freshly installed Gutsy 
machines:
- total graphical corruption. only saw this once on my nvidia desktop (no 
compiz, or desktop effects enabled)
- total freeze, including mouse, caps lock and scroll lock LEDs blinking (most 
frequent, this has even happened in the live CD environment with nothing 
installed or changed!!)
- freeze mouse still moving, but not even ctrl+alt+backspace did anything.

Log files don't show any obvious problems.

I had no such issues with Feisty on any of these 3 machines.
