I am using LInux Mint 12 x64, Gnome Shell version 3.2.2.1.  
Laptop: Lenovo T61,  Graphics: Intel 965GM. 

I have been experiencing this problem since installing Linux Mint nearly
2 months ago. I have tried solutions 1 and 3, but crashes still occur.
That is, various applications in the gnome shell and the shell itself
will be unresponsive, and then eventually (within 5-10 seconds) all the
windows become unresponsive. Alt-F2 doesn't work. I have to restart
using Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. I would say this happens on average once a day
for me.

In case this is relevant, the application I run regularly are Chrome,
Thunderbird, and Terminal. I frequently switch between virtual desktop,
but I don't think the crashes happen exclusively when I do this.

I'm pretty close to just scrapping gnome shell and using MATE instead.
