Thank for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
What you have described is a generic X freeze. It could be caused by any number of
things, and you need to take some additional steps to provide a complete report.

When did you upgrade to this version of Ubuntu?
When did you first notice the freezes occurring?
How frequently do the freezes occur?
How many per day would you say you experience?
List the applications you typically have open at the time of the freeze.
Think back to the last few times it froze.
What activities were you doing in each of those times?<br
Did you have compiz enabled.
Does the issue go away if you disable compiz?
If your system is a laptop, do you suspend/resume it?
Had you resumed at some point prior to the freezes?
Finally, and most importantly, please collect a GPU dump after reproducing the bug.
Packages to install and directions for doing this are available at:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-freeze-test

With the GPU dump in hand, we will be able to upstream this bug.

@Luc, note that the intel batch buffer dump technique cannot be used on ATI cards :-(
