I have this problem too (system completely freezes - not blank screen - hard reset only - usually CAPS lock and SCROLL lock flashing). My system is:
AMD Athlon XP 2600+ NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (but proprietry drivers and compiz disabled) No wifi
Freezes can occur in any circumstances, but seem more common with cpu intense processes (e.g flash, avidemux)
I ALSO have the same problem with Karmic - but only since lucid came out!
My laptop (Intel dual core + ATI) also suffers from this problem - so I am currently using windows (Joy o joy o joy)
I've updated to kernel 2.6.34-020634-generic but still have the same problem!
