Hello Tom

The Dell 610 has a Radeon 7000 (m6) card.
Original ATI drivers only Supports Radeon 8500 an 9xxx cards.
-->http://www.ati.com/support/faq/linux.html

The only Solution to get Performer running is to install the demo of
XI Graphics Driver.

It doesn't crash here, but the demo reboots the X server every X
minutes.......

I think it's a Problem of XFree in combination with Radeon driver and
Performer.
