I have the same symptom now.

My video is an ATI Radeon Mobility M9 built into my laptop.

In my case, TuxRacer worked fine for the one race, but some of
the GL screen savers has caused the machine ? to lockup.  The X cursor
still moves, but no keyboard, not mouse clicks, no switching to
an alternate screen.

Before last nights X update, TuxRacer and the GL screensavers worked
really slowly, but at least the machine didn't lock up.
