Now that you guys can get the magic SysRq keys to dump a log, and then we can get the ball rolling. I left plenty of logs, but still we need more. I oddly don't even have a SysRq key (I have a Microsoft keyboard that comes with its own funky layout) and I have no clue as to any alternate key commands. When I went on IRC to debug this mess, the devs told me I need to get more proper logs. If one of you guys can do it, it will be appreciated and we can make progress. Anyhow, the links they gave me were to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Triaging#Package_Classification and also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging but I think we just need to debug Xorg if you guys can get the kernel to respond. You've saved me some bug reporting work! Thank you! Just reference the first link.

While using the computer, Ubuntu will frequently (within 5-10 minutes of use) hard freeze. I am unable to move the mouse, CTRL ALT F whatever to a virtual terminal, use the keyboard, and the power button doesn't respond unless I do a hard shutdown. This could be a bug with the kernel, Xorg, or compiz. Or even something else. I have no clue to as to what's causing this, so I will upload some log files from /var/log and provide my kernel version, graphics card, and more system info if necessary. This courts frequently on raring, but also happened occasionally on Quantal. But that's another bug report. Every package is up to date. I noticed this happened only on quantal when I manually upgraded to the mainline kernel. So it could also be a kernel bug.
