Bug Description
EDIT: Resolved with Hardy
This severe bug causes a total system freezes almost every day.
It usually happens after I leave the computer idle for a while and then come back to do a certain hard drive operation (like for example browsing my Mp3 folder, but it doesn't matter on which partition or harddrive - I have 2 SATA drives).
Another clue is this may be caused by the ntfs-3g driver, because when unmounted the windows NTFS partitions for a week there were no freezes.
By total system freeze I mean that I can't even use the AlgGr+SysRq+REISUB reset. Only the hard reset helps.
Please at least help me collect debug data. I don't know how to get any after it freezes.
For now I'm attaching hdparm -I /dev/sda and hdparm-l /dev/sdb outputs

This issue seems to be resolved in Ubuntu Hardy (due to a newer kernel).
