[Bug 488283] [NEW] Entire computer freezes when moving a terminal

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I am using a fresh Ubuntu installation with Compiz turned off.  About
twice a day the entire system freezes right after I drag a terminal
window around on the desktop.  The computer then responds to pings, but
cannot be logged into using ssh.  Nothing was left in the system log
files either.  So, it seems that this has to be some kind of bug in the
fglrx kernel module, or at least in the way it is access by the fglrx
driver.

To reproduce, grab the title bar of a gnome-terminal window, and wave
the window around.  The redrawing is a bit jerky, and can sometimes
cause the bug described here.
