What you have described is a generic freeze. It could be caused by any number of things, and you need to take some additional steps to provide a complete report. "randomly" is not specific enough to be able to analyze the problem.

When did you upgrade to Jaunty? When did you first notice the freezes occurring?

How frequently do the freezes occur? How many per day would you say you experience?

List the applications you typically have open at the time of the freeze.

Describe example activities you were performing for a few of the recent freezes. You mentioned it occurs when you run new applications, which applications were these? In what way were they "new"?
