Description James 2008-05-18 11:20:42 UTC 
Description of problem:
Enabling the Update Thumbnails option in KDE Desktop Effects causes my Mobility
Radeon 9200 notebook to lock solid (no mouse or keyboard response, no response
to ping).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.8.0-14.fc9.i386
kernel-2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open KDE desktop settings.
2. Under effects, navigate to advanced options.
3. Check the update thumbnails option.
4. Click apply.
  
Actual results:
System hangs.

Expected results:
No hang, option heeded. (And unprivileged user-space programs prevented from
taking down whole system!)

Additional info:
See attached.
