[Bug 733724] [NEW] OpenGL based games crash randomly

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

When I launch an OpenGL based game, no matter which one it is, it
crashes randomly, sometimes in 5 seconds, sometimes in 5 minutes, I know
it is not the hardware because OpenGL based games in Windows XP have no
issues running for hours at a time, I have tried running the games with
compiz turned both on and off, and there is no difference, what is
ironic is that compiz (which also uses OpenGL) has no problems running
at all.

The graphics card is a PCIE X16 Radeon X300, the system is a IBM
ThinkPad T43 with a 1.8 GHZ Pentium M and 2 GB of ram
