Ever since I've been using fglrx I noticed that whenever *something* happens, the monitor does a couple of faint blinks and the whole X session *freezes* for a moment (something like 2-5 seconds).
Definitions:
*something* = I don't really know what the low-level operation is, but for example running 'xrandr -q' or 'wine' triggers it.
*freezes* = The mouse pointer does move but neither the mouse or the keyboard are sending events. The X process eats a lot of CPU.
Can someone tell me why is this happening and/or how to make it behave better?
