Bug Description
Live CD as well as installed kernel 2.6.32-13 freezes the system when I type something either in a terminal or in e.g. a search box. No problem with the mouse and typing passwords.
On the installed system I reinstalled 2.6.32-12 (which I am now using) this freezing doesn't occur.
Also the live i386 system freezes on the desktop with a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+, not however on a netbook with an Intel Atom CPU N270.
This effect is reproducible with various updates of the daily-build of Lucid Lynx.

I'm afraid I jumped in too early thinking the kernel was responsible for my problem. It did start with the 2.6.32-13, but reinstalling 2.6.32-12 now gives the same problem. Starting in recovery mode, asking for a root terminal and performing 'start gdm' gives a stable system. So it is probably a NVIDIA problem as ususal.
My apologies.
