Small update. This bug is related to the screen being powered off due to inactivity. I disabled display power off in gnome and the system run over a night without a problem.
Thus now it traced down to be happening only when the screen goes off in gnome session (I never reproduced a freeze within the gdm window yet even when Xorg powers off the screen). I also found the similar issue logged in Ubuntu Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/591699 -- Anton Martchukov http://www.martchukov.com 0xFC4FBF28 96BC 3DAB 231A 7FCC 4F49 D783 9A69 65C1 FC4F BF28
