Bug Description
I have a Dell T7500 workstation running the AMD64 Lucid distribution, fresh install, that completely hangs repeatedly, multiple times per day. There is no obvious cause, which is making it difficult to pin down the issue.
It does not appear to be related to USB devices or the sound card, because the machine has frozen while those devices were unavailable due to a separate bug.
The machine hangs completely, in that it is not just an X lockup. The machine becomes unresponsive to ssh, and when systems are connected via that protocol prior to a freeze they display no seriously abnormal behavior, they just stop responding.
I'm attaching the recommended logs, and would be happy to provide any other information that would assist in isolating the root cause of the problem.

Further info: this does not appear to be a bug related to the proprietary NVidia drivers. Disabling them has had no effect; the machine still locks up even without them installed and active.
