Same problem here, I use Ubuntu Gutsy at work and it drives me crazy.

My computer freeze *at least* one or two times a day, when I say freeze it's cold dead freeze. Everything just stop working in a split second, most of the time is when I click to open a document or a folder, or even an email. Only thing to do is hit reset, even keyboard leds won't respond.

I run Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) with kernel 2.6.22-14-generic on a AMD Athlon X2 dual core 3800+ with 4 GB of ram (only 3.2 shows up ?)

I initially though it was related to Compiz but It doesn't seems to be te case. It's VERY frustrating to be left with no errors whatsoever in logs.

This machine ran windows for a year without a glitch, I installed Ubuntu with much pain to get it working right, one week later one of my hard drive failed for no apparent reasons and now the system is less stable than my bi-polar ex-girlfriend.

Can we agree that this bug should be flagged as "important" ?

P.S.: if someone need any log just tell me wich and how to get it I will provide it.
