I experienced also hangs with a machine with a similar
configuration. Usually they are related to the driver for the graphic
card (ati driver in xorg).

You can either:

1) Add the following to the "Device" section in your xorg.conf:

        Option         "NoAccel" "true"

or

2) Use the propetary ATI driver which (at least in my case) works with
   acceleration enabled on my AMD64 laptop without hangs.

HTH,
