Description:
Now I have fresh updated system, and after update (I think 2 days ago) I have next bug:
* every fiew minutes my GUI interface stops, and mouse and keyboard freeze, and after fiew (near 5) seconds it backs to normal work.
* all text at widgets, firefox (but not in terminal, urxvt) damaged. I don't really know how to describe it...

I think it is problem in video drivers or kernel. I was trying radeonhd and radeon drivers and result the same.
Here is my video card (HP 6820s laptop):
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Mobility Radeon X1350]
Kernel:
Linux laptop 2.6.31-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Oct 23 11:12:58 CEST 2009 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T2410 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Here is what I have in my /var/log/errors.log:

Which xorg driver are you using?
Comment by Laszlo Papp (djszapi) - Saturday, 07 November 2009, 15:19 GMT
He said radeonhd and radeon drivers. What's in your xorglog ?
Comment by Viacheslav Chumushuk (voice) - Saturday, 07 November 2009, 16:28 GMT
After today xorg updating my system again works fine.
[2009-11-07 14:45] upgraded xorg-server (1.7.1-1 -> 1.7.1.901-1)

Sorry, but after rebooting I lost my xorg log, but when I had this bug I haven't nothing interesting in xorg log,
only in errors.log, which I posted above.

So I think the problem is solved. Strange that only I had this bug...
Thanks for you replies, guys.

nice to hear it works now, it's worth to close it.
