Wonder if this is the same bug I get.

After upgrading to the final Jaunty Beta and also the RC Candidate mine crashes after several hours idle giving me an unresponsive black screen. Intel Pentium 4 3GHz, with 6800GS graphics card.

Predictably occurs if I'm downloading from an ftp server overnight. In the morning, it is always crashed to a black screen.

Doesn't occur while running Intrepid (I never ran earlier Jaunty versions, so can't say about them)..

Is there any way I can gather info about this crash? Not sure how to. If I can telnet / ssh to the box, what commands should I type while its otherwise unresponsive?

Could be unrelated, but prior to crashes Ive sometimes noticed 'tracker-indexer' seems to be chewing up most of the system CPU for hours on end.
