Xorg log when it crash

Computer freezes withing minutes when I enabled Dri using Radeon free driver.

When I'm using my computer (visit web-sites, see my e-mail, etc) xorg work correctly during about 10 minutes and then xorg hang and the screen display "Out of range" error. I don't use VLC and Compiz. Compiz can run and VLC too. I tried upgrading radeon driver to 6.12.99 but the problem wasn't solved. 
Then I tried editing xorg.conf:

 - I put Option "AGPMode" "4" in Device section Results: screen display "Without signal error"
 - I change value to 8 Results: screen display "Without signal" error Results: screen display "Without signal error"
 - I change value to 0 Results: screen display "Without signal" error Results: screen display "Without signal error"
 - I change value to 2 Results: screen display "Without signal" error Results: screen display "Without signal error"
 - I change value to 1 Results: screen display "Without signal" error Results: screen display "Without signal error"
 - I delete Option "AGPMode" "4" and I put Option "BusType" "PCI" Results: the problem persist
 - I add Disable "dri2" in Module section Results: the problem persist
 - I remove Disable "dri2" and I add Disable "dri" 

--> Results: problem solved but Compiz can't work and others 3D applications.

Old versions of Ubuntu (8.04 LTS) don't appear this problem

So it lockups even when Forced to PCI ? Or only when in AGP ? Please also
provide a Xorg log when in AGP mode.

Update 15/8/2009: I can use AGP Mode without problems disabling Dri

The AGPMode option is only relevant when the dri is enabled.  Are you saying your system works now with the DRI enabled?  If so, what AGPMode fixed the problem?

No. Dri only run with PCI mode but it work during 5 minutes and then Xorg hang.
Only I can use AGP Mode WITHOUT Dri because it causes X hang during startup.

The AGPMode option does nothing when the DRI is disabled.

I don't understand. I can run Xorg correctly with AGP Mode without Dri.

The AGPMode option is only relevant when the DRI is enabled since AGP gart is only used when the DRI is enabled.  When the DRI is disabled, the driver ignores the AGPMode option.

OK. But the problem persist.

Alfredo Cabrera, Ubuntu Jaunty reached EOL on October 23, 2010. For more on this, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases .

If this is reproducible in a supported release, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with Ubuntu by ensuring you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information running the following from a terminal:
