This one bit me a few weeks ago, but I did not know what had hit me. Essentially, when running Virtualbox 2.1.4 (the binary .deb from virtualbox.org, shame shame) AND fglrx [two "crimes"] AND copying large amounts of data between ext4 partitions, my system would lock.

After hard resetting the system, my painstakingly laid out KDE 4 desktop layout would be nuked. I couldn't decide what to blame: fglrx, Virtualbox or KDE 4.2, so I simply stopped using fglrx, and switched to GNOME. I have marked https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/334581 as invalid.

As for the data I was copying - I did not check to see if any files were zeroed. I simply copied again.
