Same problem for me also... system will randomly freeze. I was using Gutsy.
Spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the issue was. I thought it might be related to a TSC drift related problem, but it is inconclusive.
I also recently tried installing Arch Linux with kernel 2.6.22, and it froze during a pacman upgrade.

I also have Win XP on a partition and it works fine... maybe it's most likely something in the kernel?!
This is incredibly frustrating...

My system:
Ubuntu: 7.10 Gutsy, 32-bit
AMD64 X2 3800+
1GB RAM (DDR)
Nvidia 7800GT 256MB
