(Get the code!)
I've got the same problem, with an old ATI AGP card (Kubuntu). The crash is random, but, as previously stated, does appear to be exacerbated by using Firefox. X.org goes to 100% CPU usage - I can still ssh to the machine, but it's horrendously slow. The mouse pointer moves, but the keyboard is dead (can't toggle caps lock even) and the screen is otherwise frozen. It once happened while NoteEdit was playing a score via timidity, and the music continued as if nothing was amiss. And NoteEdit highlights notes while it is playing.
Thank you for the advice to revert the driver - I shall do this later. It's very disappointing that a distribution upgrade has caused such a serious problem.
