Ok, I'm having what sounds like the same problem - I've used synaptic to remove compiz (completely) and am still seeing the same issue. I can't pin it down as nothing appears in the logs when it dies, however it does seem to be sound related. (i.e. if I play music, I lock up pretty quickly)
System: Althon Duo, 4G RAM, 500Gb SATA, nVidia Quattro
Machine was previously stable on Hardy.
I've tried amd64,x86, same on both architectures - no difference, both lock up.
I've tried Nvidia 173 and 177 drivers, no difference there.
I do run VMWARE on the machine (server), have just disabled that to see if it makes a difference.
What I have noticed is that the mouse locks up, however ( I didn't notice this at first ) the keyboard is still active, so you can Alt-Tab into the window you want to close things down .. no end of killing processed however will make the mouse do anything useful apart from move.
It would be useful to define the term "lock" .. for example do you mean a complete freeze? In which case I have a different problem as the mouse still moves, it just won't do anything. I Can for example ctrl-alt-del out of the problem ... ??
