I don't know if a screenshot will help you much.
I can tell about the open programs last time it occured: firefox, rhytmbox, filezilla, file-explorer (places).
There was also some Flash going on in one of the tabs in firefox.

Trond H. Klykken (trond-klykken) wrote : The 'freeze' bug

it might appear that the Transmission Bittorrent Client might have to do something with the freeze.
I tried to close down programs to see if it affected the freeze (sometimes manually shutting down the programs with alt-f, then quit, as the mouse didn't register button clicks within ubuntu).
I closed all open programs in different order to check which was most probable to "lock" ubuntu.
finally I closed down programs in this order: Firefox , File browser, Amsn, rhythmbox and then Transmission.
the screen "unfroze" when closing Transmission. (I can't recall if this program was running during my first encounter with the freeze.)
I am sorry to be unable to provide more details about this problem.
I also hope it's alright to inform about this bug, as it is quite an irritating one.

I can't reproduce the freeze.
Seems today, that the freeze happens no matter what programs are open.
Sometimes I get the impression that there is an invisible window. This is backed by the fact that when I earlier today experienced the freeze, I tried to close down any window without any luck.
Suddenly one window popped up, that I believe belonged to bittornado.
I closed that one and everything was stuck still. no alt-tab possible. the mouse didn't interact with the windows.
Reboot was the only solution.

the problem lasts.
this time only three programs up: rhythmbox, transmission and firefox.
I was watching a video on youtube, when the program was last encountered.
managed to close down firefox and the problem (seemed to have) dissappeared.
