This thread was spot on for me. I have a (according to dmidecode) FUJITSU SIEMENS A8NE-FM minitower with a GeForce 7300 and since upgrading to Jaunty it has been haunted by random hangs.
I just installed 185.18.08 (had to clean out all old nvidia drivers from synaptics first) and although it's a bit early to tell if it is perfect I can certainly say it is significantly better.
One thing bugged me: In the past I've always experimented remotely from my laptop via ssh -X, but apparently this breaks the installation script sinc "X -showDefaultLibPath" will produce "X: warning; process set to priority -2 instead of requested priority 0" before the actual path. So, be sure to actually perform the installation from a text console.

Keep it up / Jonas
