My T23 would hard-lock pretty consistently as well, when it
reached the smelting point.

Compiling doesn't seem to have any issues, its just when I
tinker with something using heavil OpenGL, like xscreensavers or any
GL games.

Are you getting dri? I'm at >2600fps with r300 here. Which
version of r300 did you build your tree from?
