This bug bit me on a Dell Latitude D830 laptop (64-bit Core2 Duo CPU, ICH8 SATA controller).

Laptop had been very stable while running Intrepid for months.

Installed the Jaunty CD (9.04, from April 2009), which has the now-infamous 2.6.28-11 kernel. Got lots of silent filesystem corruption within days. :-(

Upgraded to to linux-generic 2.6.28.13.17, problem appears to have gone away, though my disk is still corrupted :-(

I wish there was a note in the Jaunty release notes about this! And a new Jaunty install CD with the fixed kernel. I guess it's back to Intrepid and my most recent backup for me.
