Thank you Paul,<br><br>I disabled the "DRI" Module and the "Radeon" driver works perfectly now (2 days without a crash :) ) ! All aspect ratio are operating as they should.<br>I spent several weeks asking people on formus why the "Radeon" driver was hard crashing my computer and nobody could help me !

With the radeon driver or the ati driver that is supplied by xorg, you can prevent the hard crashing of your machine by disabling DRI. Comment out the DRI line in the modules section of your
xorg.conf.<br>Of course if you do that you won't have any 3D rendering (but you might not care about that). I have a 9500 pro in my myth box and I have been regretting it. My problem is I can't get the fglrx driver to display at 1280x768. The ati and radeon driver will do that resolution but not 3D rendering because of the lockup/DRI issue. Also the image quality with the ati and radeon drivers is very poor when compared with the fglrx driver.
