This affects me too. Regular freezes with complete computer lock-up needing a hard re-start. Very high CPU loading when viewing video on-line. Last line of logs always refers to tsc clocksource unstable
Reading the various logs and boards this has been going on for far too long. I'm seriously thinking of reverting to 8.04 as this was rock solid. When it first happened I assumed it was something to do with my ATI video card so I went out and bought an Nvidia card. Still happens.

The importance of this bug needs to be raised to critical. There was a time when I would have recommended Ubuntu as a Windows alternative - no longer, at least not 9.04!
