Anyone had hangs with Radeon, XF86 4.3.0, and DRI on logout?

It seems not to be related, but when I try to kill my X Server using
Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, my box powers down (jsut like an APM power-down). I
started noticing it using 4-STABLE+ NVidia driver, but it continued to
be the case on -CURRENT with Xfree86's nv driver.
I just re-installed NVidia's driver and it works great (far more stable
than on -STABLE *g*), but I did not confirm if I can kill my X server
using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace properly again. Will do that in some minutes,
though. I remember that I have lost quite a lot of files one time this
happened (I was used to kill my X Server using the shortcut) on -STABLE.
