I would like to add I have this problem also and am on Ubuntu 8.10
(Intrepid).

It is important to note the problem only occurs when I use the Linux
2.6.28-11 Kernel and the machine freezes every hour without fail (often
on any task I am performing, can not pin down just to one).

Motherboard voltages and CPU overheating have been ruled out as the
temps/voltages Xsensors is stating are all in within the ranges expected
and like I say this issue does not occur with Linux Kernel 2.6.27-7 (it
only occurs with Linux 2.6.28-11).

In addition can also rule out badcaps as I have had the board re-capped.

The machine is quite old now and isn't anything spectacular but here are
the specs :-

A-Bit KT7A v1.3
AMD Athlon XP 2600
1.5 GB Ram
3 Hard Drives (Non-Raid) - 1 x 250 GB (split 75 % ubuntu xfs, 25 % windows xp 
ntfs), 1 x 160 GB (windows xp ntfs), 1 x 20 GB (windows xp ntfs)
ATI Radeon 9250 AGP Card
Creative Media Audio PCI Soundcard
Compro Digital DVB-TV Capture Card
Netgear Fast Ethernet LAN Card
600W Power Supply

Hope this helps.  Please let me know if you require anything further to
investigate this.

Cheers,
Gary
