Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
Since using Ubuntu 9.10, x is freezing often, sometimes once every 2 hours, mouse is still moving. there is no reason recognisable. it happens e.g. when surfing a while with firefox. When visiting the same pages again, it wont freeze again.
This happens when using kernel 2.6.31-11. With all newer kernels, it will usually freeze already in the login screen. So i am using the older kernel. I already uninstalled compiz, but the problem remains.
The only way to restart is shutdown by ssh.
When using Windows XP on the same notebook, there are no such freezes.
I attached the files for debugging the problem.

phran, at bug 447892 we have identified the commit to the kernel that triggered the freezes for many people on 855GM chipsets. Could you also test the before (599) and after (600) kernels to check if this is the bad commit for you as well? See comment #59 at bug 447892 for details.
