After months of acceptable stability, the problems seems to be coming back.

Again my system is locking up on a daily basis. It's the only bug that makes me want to switch from Ubuntu, I'm getting pretty f*cking exasperated.

It happens exactly like it use to happen on Gutsy (I'm now on Hardy). I'm working normally with many programs open, then open Firefox, Thunderbird or Open Office (I noticed it happens more often with these..) and while it loads I click somewhere else. Then mouse stop but not instantly, it's like a 2~3 seconds gradual slowdown which leads to a complete system lock.

And again, nothing unusual appears in log files.

For more infos on my setup, refer to my previous comment:

The only thing that changed is the OS version, I was on Gutsy, now I'm on Hardy (2.6.24-21-generic).
