Hi: I have had the same or similar experience to most others in this bug report. My machine started freezing randomly a few weeks back after years of reliable service. I tried lots of things and eventually determined that it was a heat problem. The CPU fan was full of dust and the temps were pretty high. I blew out the dust and the temp went right down, but the random freezes remained. That machine was an Asus P5B Deluxe, Dual Core, 6GB RAM, NVidia 6600 on Jaunty. On close inspection, I could see the graphics riser was slightly warped and discoloured, so I assumed it had heated to the point that it had damaged the MB and that was what was causing the random freezes, I got a new MB, CPU, RAM (Asus M3N, AM2, 4GB RAM, on-board NVidia 8200) and re-installed Jaunty. It worked fine for about 1 day and then the random freezes happened again. I tried all the suggestions on this and other posts such as installing the 185 driver, except the 2.6.30 kernel, but still it froze more and more. I am now running 8.04 with very limited graphics. I can at least work, but would like to use jaunty if possible. I hope someone can find a cure for this ill. The conspiracy theorist in me suspects an M$ mole planted in the kernel team several years ago who has finally made their move :)
