I've been having the exact same problem with my FX5200 for about 3 months now. The difference only is that, for me, the screen freeze is extremely consistent. I was using the Livna driver packages before. Since reverting back to the nvidia X driver, I have had no issues with freezing at all. Of course, I also no longer am able to play some of my favorite OpenGL games (PP Racer and Foo Billiard, for example) either. I was about to throw my hands in the air and spend the $$ to get a newer card, but would rather not, especially if this really is a bug. Now that someone else is experiencing it too, I'm more confident that it is software related.
