Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
Release: 11.04
Unity:
Installed: 3.6.8-0ubuntu3
Candidate: 3.6.8-0ubuntu3
Version table:
*** 3.6.8-0ubuntu3 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
After a random time (30 minutes - 1 hour) the system hard freezes:
can't move mouse, can't switch to tty, can't send magic sysrq, can't ping the computer from network
This only happens when using unity, with a "ubuntu classic" session with compiz everything runs fine for many hours

I created /etc/x11/xorg.conf with the following config:
Section "Device"
Identifier "x300"
Driver "radeon"
Option "DRI" "off"
EndSection
And the system seems stable now: no freezes for 5-6 hours
