Same here. I have a Matrox G400 Dual Head, and sometimes, opening a Context menu in OpenOffice (click File for example) will freeze Xorg. I'm able to ssh in, and kill X. But for an end-user system, this might as well be a system freeze. About the only thing I don't have to restart/redo is my Netware mount. :/ I was going to buy a newer dual-head card, but if it's happening with other drivers, I'm not going to waste my money and I'll just avoid OO.org because that's where it happens for me. :/ As much as I'm with Austin and agree ATI drivers tend to suck, there seems to be a bigger bug with Xorg in general...
