Public bug reported:

On any version of kernel after 2.6.35-22, get freezes
  
  -- almost always after some tens of seconds 
      when copying megabytes of data to hard disk using nautilus, 
      whether source is same HD or flash memory

  -- sometimes when allowing an update involving numerous megabytes of
      download (I now seldom allow an update when booted into post-2.6.35-22;
      cleaning up mess after aborted install not worth the hassle)

  -- when launching VirtualBox (again, I avoid trying to run a VM when in 
post-2.6.35-22 kernel for
      fear of messing up VM file)

  -- occasionally when launching Firefox

I've ruled out an X-freeze; once system has frozen because cannot reach
it via SSH over LAN using puTTY

memtest++ run from boot runs for hours without problems

Tried booting with options ,

   acpi=off noacpi

fails to boot

Treid booting with options

   nomodeset xdriver=radeon

boots okay but same problem occurs

Tried running with cache off (/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches non-zero), makes
no difference

I now run on 2.6.35-22 all the time (running on latest version of kernel 
installed: 2.6.35-25-generic
for purposes of this bug report).
