@estimablesir (comment #187), I should have been clearer. After a fresh
install of Ubuntu I had added the Gnome 3 Team PPA
[ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3] to get updates for various Gnome packages that
were not ready for the 11.10 feature freeze. Gnome-Shell updates are
included in this PPA too, and while everything was stable for a time the
Gnome-Shell started to freeze on me as described in this bug. After
trying various solutions I purged the ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 from my
system, which meant rolling back all the updated Gnome packages to the
Ubuntu 11.10 defaults as in the repos. Since doing that Gnome-Shell has
been stable and I have not suffered a single freeze.
