I'm running Gnome3 (not Unity) Here is a forum post which describes what happened and what I have done: http://askubuntu.com/questions/130803/12-04-gui-hangs I don't use much, only Eclipse, Chrome and terminal windows. Skype and Pidgeon are running as well. The hangs have happened in the middle of using Eclipse or typing into a terminal window. Prior to the upgrade (I was on 11.10) I had no similar problems.
