SOLUTION FOR ATI CARDS:

It seems that many people with ATI cards (probably only the X series as well,
but that is untested as of yet) are experiencing a crash a few seconds after (or
as soon as) they log into the game. I found a workaround for this:

sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Go to the part where it says:

Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Technologies, Inc. ATI Default Card"
Driver "fglrx"
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
EndSection

Make sure to add these lines AFTER BusID, and before EndSection:

Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
Option "UseFastTLS" "off"
Option "KernelModuleParm" "locked-userpages=0"

Then exit vim (or your favorite editor). Reset your desktop manager
(ctrl+alt+bkspace).

This fixes the "login and freeze" crash, but you may STILL freeze on
entering/exiting buildings.
