Public bug reported:

I have had frequent problems with graphics drivers in general and fglrx
in particular.  Lately, the system freezes (beyond even the mystic
powers of the SysRq) after random lengths of time spent playing any
graphics-heavy game (straight video seems to be alright, and sites like
google maps).  I can't say for sure that this report is related; it
appeared after I was forced to do a hard reboot.  But it's the first
hard evidence the machine has barfed up this week, as I've inexpertly
trawled the logs, so this report is a bit of a hail mary.
