Hi!

I hope Im not disturbing with nonsense but I have a similar problem BUT 
the freeze appears after I have installed the flgrx driver and the 686 
kernel. I thought it was just a one time thing but I have tried the same 
thing 3 times now with exactly the same result!
It freezes at the loginscreen. I have been on Ubuntu since the 4th 
distro and this is the first time anything has gone bad!!! 3D 
acceleration is essential so this has to be fixed!
