 	I can confirm that stock 6.1-release kernel gives the same
 sympthoms on Toshiba Satellite 1800-700 with similar graphics card and
 Xorg 6.9.0 server.
 
 	This is not a problem of Xorg drivers and can be resolved:
 
 1. Disable ACPI (one may try to enable it later).
 2. Create GENERIC based custom kernel config file and remove "device eisa"
    line, remove all other drivers which are not necessary.  Enable apm
    device.  Install new kernel and reboot.
 3. Edit xorg configuration file: add "Option "NoDDC"" to the corresponding
    "device" section.  Try to start Xes, if computer still hangs (even C-A-D
    doesn't work) add also "Option "NoPCIBurst"" to the same section (don't
    remove NoDDC).
