What desktop are you runnig on top of X? does it have any 3D or OpenGL components in it? if you just run X, does it always start to the X cursor without hanging.. Try disabling pre-empt also.. if you get a chance.. I've got the same chip on an evaluation card in my PC at the moment, and I've been running the same X 6.8.2 on it for a while with no issues on the latest kernels..
