still having occasional hard desktop lockups

  i know i've mentioned this before but i'm still having the
occasional desktop lockup where, when i'm trying to, say, just drag a
window, the cursor changes to the 4-way arrow and just *stays* that
way.  i can still move the cursor but it's painfully slow and there's
no way to get control of the system back short of power cycling.

  IIRC, if i'm on a network, i can still ssh in so the underlying
system is still functioning, but there's no way to break out of X
anymore -- ctrl-alt-bs doesn't work.

  is anyone else seeing this?  radeon driver.
