No way!!

Sorry for the infinite replies... :-(

It still freezs and I don't how to fix it.

I'm almost sure it's related with the kernel, in fact the ati driver
works well with kernels prior to 2.6.25, patching the kernel as
raccomended by somes it doesn't help as well.

Now, while I'm replying with a ¢|¬§°#@°§¬°§|6 windows :-( , I'm
updating again the whole system.

If anybody has an idea on how to fix this problem it would be great!!!

Thanks
Antenore
