Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

New install of Kubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwahl. Emachines e442, Xorg verson
1:7.6+4ubuntu3, ATI Technologies Inc M880G [Mobility Radeon HD 4200]
with the generic open source radeon driver. Viewing Flash video in full
screen on web browsers causes the Xserver to crash.

The only solution is to go to the virtual console, kill firefox with the
killall or kill -9 PID command, and restart the computer. Restarting KDM
leads to a loss of network connections.

Steps to recreate: 
1. Open Firefox, Chrome, or Rekonq
2. Play flash video
3. Hit the full screen button

The bug persists when trying to view videos with hardware acceleration
enabled. Disabling hardware acceleration causes videos to start in full
screen, but exit immediately. Enabling the fglrx driver from the
"Additional driver" utility solves the problem, but brings on others,
not related to the flash issue.

Additional information on demand.
