It sounds like a GPU lockup. These are notoriously hard to debug. On
-intel there are tools and such for doing so, but those don't exist for
nouveau.
It is likely that this issue is fixed in a newer kernel since GPU
lockups tend to be bugs in the kernel drm code. So, you might try just
upgrading your kernel.
Please test Precise (e.g. with a live cd), and if it still occurs there
we can approach upstream about it.
