Public bug reported:
Since upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 beta on my Thinkpad T61, I encounter
system freezes (screen freezes, caps-lock light blinking) some random
time after boot. Can be after 5 minutes or even after couple of hours.
I've noticed that it was more likely to happen during IM conversations
either via Pidgin or Skype, but that might be coincidence, since it
happens also during other times.
My current workaround is to deactivate wireless through the gnome
network manager. When I do that I can work the whole day without a
crash. That's why I suspect something related to wireless to cause
this.
I've tried booting 8.10 with the 2.6.19 kernel (which worked under 8.04
without problems) but with same results.
