This hang thing might be a separate issue. Some people have reported problems similar to this on the list... and I've experienced it as well. The short of it is, on some hardware, Kernel 2.6.34 and Xorg run up the CPU to 100% and your system pauses or hangs momentarily. CPU load drops and you're back to normal... then at some random time it happens again. My solution was to simply bump up to the 2.6.35 kernel from the Kernel:Head repository. Another solution suggested by another list member (I forget who now... sorry) was to boot with vmalloc=192M. Testing the newer kernel or booting with the additional boot parameter are both fairly simple non-destructive tests you can do to see if it sorts the short hang you're experiencing.
