A lot has change since then. The drivers have matured.

My Rage128 has never locked anything up :)
The DRI drivers are not bad.

Lucky you. Then again, they may have improved their drivers too.
I gave up on them. They promised open source drivers, then released 
obfuscated crap no one could work on. Later the developed other drivers, 
but kept them closed. I gave up just before the GeForce+ frivers were 
released. I had a TNT2 and they wouldn't work on it.
