Hi !
I have the same problem here using (laptop) Acer 8004 LMI, Radeon 9700.

With 8.04, I had no problem but after the upgrade to 8.04.1 the freeze appears.
The mouse (trackpad) continues to works but do not register any click and the keyboard seems no respond at all (ctrl+alt+f1 does not work). The freeze appears a few seconds after gdm starts or after I login into the system.

I had no problem with any previous version of ubuntu.

I try install intrebid ibex beta using an usb key (my cdrom is dead) but the freeze also appears in the installer now ! So impossible to install intrebid but I think the problem is not solved if the installer freeze too.
