Comment 0 for bug 375358

I have a Dell XPS M1330 and Kubuntu Jaunty is _unusable_ here*. It freezes _very_ often, with no obvious pattern, so I can't suggest a package; and I don't use 3D effects at all, so I don't think this is the same as Bug #359392.

There are a few interesting things in these freezes:
 1.- I can still move the mouse cursor normally, but clicks don't work -- because the applications, the panels, the system tray... are all frozen.
 2.- I can't restart X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. (Yes, I know it's disabled by default, but I re-enabled it and it does work when the system is not frozen.)
 3.- Many times it happens when I'm using Kmail or Konqueror. There's no URL or anything like that I can point you to to try to reproduce this bug, because they're no obvious pattern -- It's even crashed when I was read a simple HTML document locally.

The computer can freeze after a few minutes or after hours being on, it's absolutely unpredictable.

* It's absolutely unusable because I always lost what I'm doing and I don't know how to avoid these freezes. I also think it could damage my hard disk, because when it's frozen I just can press the power button to turn it off.
