fglrx 64bit hard lock

Greetings,
As a last resort, I'm wondering if anyone here has come across the following issue?

On every Linux distribution I've tried (Ubuntu, Debian, Suse, Fedora, custom kernels 2.6.22-> 2.6.24), I get a hard lock when trying to start X with the fglrx driver (version 8.2 and 8.3).

The system is completely frozen and I have to power off.

32Bit Linux works without issue, so it's just when on a 64bit system.

Here is my lspci:
Code:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express DRAM Controller (rev 02)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express PCI Express Root Port (rev 02)

00:03.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express PT IDER Controller (rev 02)

00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 02)
00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #1 (rev 02)
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev 92)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801IO (ICH9DO) LPC Interface Controller (rev 02)
00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801IR/IO/IH (ICH9R/DO/DH) 6 port SATA AHCI Controller (rev 02)
00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 02)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon HD 2400 XT
03:02.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Agere Systems FW323 (rev 61)
Any ideas?

Found this bug which appears to be my problem:
Bug 567 - Screen locks with DRI on X1300


As advised, adding the following to the device section of my xorg.conf stops the hardlock problem - but this obviously disables 3D:
Code:
Option "NoDRI" "Yes"
So still no solution, but I'll add my details there.
