hi I use gentoo whith a 2.6.30 kernel. I have a ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series] setting up Option "BusType" "PCIE" in xorg.conf freeze the computer. /var/log/Xorg.0.log gives : ...

Thanks, I'll reassign this to DRI, althought it might even be an acpi/x86 problem, dunno.
IGP chips like the RS690 have special gart controllers. The BusType option is not relevant to these chips and shouldn't be used on them.
