[...] Backtrace:
Empty backtrace. Wonderful! :-(
I could possibly boot the LiveCD and post the Xorg.0.log from that crash too, if needed?
I doubt that would help. Also, how do you want to copy the logfile of a LiveCD if the system freezes? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Ah. Well, the corresponding driver from ubuntu 10.04 repositories seem to work (at least i did an install and that showed no similar errors) so maybe there could be some way to compare source code?
Could you provide the package source? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
