Today, I had this error, too, but not with firefox3 (IIRC).
It was after the update of libXext-1.0.4,1 to 1.0.5,1 -- going back
seemed to have fixed it. (I still had a package from after the xorg 7.4
upgrade last week.)
I have not got time to look into it and try to reproduce it. (There were
some other updates and configurations changes around the same time.)
BTW: It was on 7.1. I do use the radeon driver, too.
Cheers,
Jan Henrik
