So this is probably not terribly helpful, but I'd like to add that like the person in a duplicate bug (#34312), I also experience lockups seemingly at random (I'll sit down at my computer which has been idle for awhile and find everything frozen and the caps lock key flashing). I'm running Jaunty w/ 2.6.28-11-generic kernel and Ext4, and I know of at least one other user who has the same thing happen to her. The reason I'm mentioning this is to point out that while recursively removing lots of files does seem to be a sure-fire way to reproduce the bug (hang.py causes my computer to freeze, as does emptying the trash if it's got a lot of stuff in it), there seem to be other things that set off the behavior as well....
