this is most likely a problem with the kernel. have you tried booting into a stable 2.4.xx ?

the moment i click the create msg box the cursor freezes and my box locks up.
build system:
. debian testing / unstable . both kernels 2.6.0 & 2.6.1 . gem-0.888pre and todays CVS . pd-0.37-1test3 . radeon 7500 (DRI / DRM =yes) . xlibmesa3 . libglut3 . ext3 fs
i had the same problems on my pretty, shitty gericom notebook (radeon M6) with 2.6.0*-kernels: create a glx-context (either Gem or glxgears or whatever) and thats it. the box doesn't really lock, just the Xserver freezes. i could log in remotely.
however, i upgraded the xserver to debian/unstable 2 days ago. yesterday i compiled/installed a 2.6.1-kernel. and hooray it works. (but i don't know what exactly it was) i thought guenter is right that this is a plain kernel issue, so 2.6.1 has fixed it for me
