Public bug reported:
I've been experiencing total system freeze, frequently (say once every 1-4
hours), starting 25th Jan.
This system has been running intrepid since alpha 4 and has been very stable.
When a freeze occurs my X display doesn't update, no response to mouse
or keyboard input, audio stops, can't ssh in, can't kill X or change
tty. The only fix is to do a power reset.
I can't see anything obvious in the logs (though I'm not sure what I'm
looking for). Memtest reports no problems, neither does fsck. I
typically update daily, so looking at my apt log I noticed updates to X
around that date. I've tried removing the proprietary ATI drivers, using
the driver suggested by envyng, reconfiguring xserver-xorg, with no
success.
