I (and many others) had the same problem on ubuntu 10 (there is a 200 page thread on ubuntuforums.org about it) and now i have the same problem again after upgrading to 12.04. I tried with kernel 3.2.0-39 and 3.2.0-40 with different versions of the nvidia drivers but the freezes remain.

On ubuntu 10 (Lucid) i "fixed" the problem by setting all window effects to off in gnome/compiz.

Now with 12.04 and running Unity i found a similar setting after installing the Myunity package. It is on the Desktop tab of myunity called "Windows animations" and it's ON by default.

I changed the setting to OFF yesterday and will report back if i experience another freeze...
