(Get the code!)
Hi (just my two cents),
Many, many people have been experiencing lock-ups since at least Gutsy (myself included).
I did a complete re-install of Hardy, and I'm still experiencing lock-ups. I run an ASUS A8M laptop and a Nvidia graphics card.
I found that if I switch ACPI off during boot (either, noacpi or acpi=off) that I have absolutely no problems with lock-ups (of course I have other problems, but they are minor in comparison). So, no lockups with ACPI off! Is this somehow realted to a long ago, far away kernel upgrade and a very poor BIOS ACPI implementation?!? (just a guess...)
Anyhow, lots of luck guys... :) and I hope maybe switching ACPI off might help at least one person.
I'll keep checking back in the hopes of a possible fix.
