Thanks for the first interest about this bug. All the questions you are
asking are already answered in my previous posts (comments), but I'll
anyway answer all your questions here:

- I may try to access the computer after the freeze with ssh, but I am giving 
it almost no chance to succeed. When the freeze occurs, the mouse, and audio 
stops to respond immediately together with the HDD activity - all in the same 
millisecond. It is not just X.
- I don't think it is X server what is causing the freeze as it freezes even 
without the X server running (see comment 7)
- I upgraded to Jaunty when afaik Alpha 3 was released
- first notice of freeze is described in the bug description. I am doing 
regular updates on a daily basis and the problems started since the kernel 
version linux-image-2.6.28-7-generic. Therefore the bug was very probably 
introduced exactly with that minor version (7).
- about frequency: when I do nothing cpu/hdd consuming on the computer, it can 
run for a hours/days without a problem. Once I start to use 100% cpu/hdd, I 
estimate 50% chance of freeze during each minute (1min = 50%, 2min = 75% etc.).
- the list of applications has been also mentioned - lightest configuration was 
from booting directly to init=/bin/bash to fresh boot to KDE and starting 
Eclipse (described several times in my posts)
- example activities are running the "stress" program, or starting the Eclipse.

Thanks for the links, but from my conclusion described in the comments
it is not related to the X. I strongly suggest to check the changes
between linux-image-2.6.28-6-generic and linux-image-2.6.28-7-generic,
mostly those related to I/O, EXT4, HDD...
