Yep, I can still reproduce this on lucid. Note that I had to use
"radeon.modeset=0" boot parameter or else the VESA driver wouldn't load.

Setting back to Confirmed.

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-vesa
  
  I'm currently running X with the VESA driver while debugging a suspend
  issue, and came across a freeze in the VESA driver on my hardware.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Boot to login screen (gdm) using VESA driver
  2) Switch to VT1 (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and back to VT7 8 times.
  3) Try to switch to VT1 again, screen freezes and fades to white. Machine does not respond to ping.
  
  I have tried this over and over again, it always freezes on the 9th
  attempt, no more, no less. Also, putting the machine in suspend can
  trigger it if I have already switched VT's 8 times, otherwise a
  suspend/resume cycle seems to reset the GPU so that I can successfully
  switch another 8 times! Pretty weird bug.
  
  Please let me know if I can provide any more information.
  
  PS: Ignore the Xorg log attached by apport, it's from a new session (of
  course).
