Comment 6 for bug 384884

Fabio, sorry for not replying sooner. As I stated in comment #1, I upgraded the kernel. This actually fixed the problem.

I would assume the kernel entered a waiting condition of some sort in its core, which got fixed by upgrading to a different minor kernel revision.

I have not experienced this problem since, and it did not return after upgrading to 9.10 or 10.04.

Please consider closing the bug. Thank you for your interest.
