Ubuntu 10.04 freezes randomly but pretty consistently; from 1 min to couple of hours. I tried three different recommendations, one pretty technical for my standard (maybe too technical, I have no experience with Unix or usage of "terminal") but I followed the instruction carefully - and they all failed. So, I reverted back to Ubuntu 9.10 - to my surprise, 9.10 would freeze also. Ubuntu 9.10 never did that in my old Compaq laptop with AMD Athlon (screen no longer works - hardware problem).
I really like to be able to use 10.04. Are there relatively new system that run 10.04 without freezing?
I updated my system to:
INTEL Pentium ES5400
BIOSTAR G41D3G
