The AIGLX crash is a known issue.  There's a patch here: 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11870

As for the graphics corruption.  This is a PCIe card, correct?  I had nearly 
the exact same problem with 6.2 (though with my problem, restart X never 
fixed it), and it was fixed (for me) in -CURRENT sometime in the last year.  
I've had a similar problem with an AGP card when my AGP gart size was set 
higher in my xorg.conf file than it was in my BIOS.
