Public bug reported:

After logging into GNOME session, the system crashes when user generates
some activity - even the simplest one like opening a text file with
gvim. I expected to conduct my work, but instead, the system crashed in
an unusually hard way.

The system crashes so hard, that even numlock doesn't blink (the keyboard 
doesn't work) and when the on/off button is pushed (which is the only way out), 
the system shuts down, even though normally, when I push this button, the 
system restarts itself. 
Another weird thing is that the screen sometimes disbands itself (?some 
graphics-related issue..?), last time the screen only went blank. And the (cpu) 
fan starts to work harder (is making more noise). 

Extra info:
When the user doesn't do anything after logging in, the system doesn't 
crash/freeze, at least during the first five minutes.

release: Lucid (development branch), upgraded 24.10.2010
system: Asus F5RL
graphics: Ati radeon X1100, using open source ati driver
