Title:
  Xorg freeze -- random, no identifiable trigger (yet)

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  The computer freezes randomly, roughly once per day at no particular
  time with no particular trigger.  The problem existed in 9.04 and 9.10
  with identical hardware, and now in 10.04, although I cannot say for
  sure if it is the same bug.   The lockup is total.  I have not tried
  rlogging in over the net, nor have I yet checked whether Alt-SysRq-K
  will work (something only just learned about).

  I have no idea if the information collected by apport is going to show
  you anything.  If there is a better way or better time to run apport-
  bug (or ubuntu-bug or whatever), I'm all ears.   All the information
  gathered by apport here was some time after rebooting from the last
  lockup.

  I usually have Firefox running, but I do not believe it is necessary
  for this bug to occur.  It definitely did not matter what I had
  running back in 9.10.  I do not remember if I had a freeze occur with
  no apps running yet in 10.04.

  I am technically literate, but I do not know my way around Linux
  packages, log files, debugging tools.  I should be able to follow
  instruction easily enough, or start to debug myself once pointed to
  the right information (depending on available time).

  I also do not know myself whether "xorg" is the correct package to
  file this under -- it is what apport-bug chose based on its
  interactive wizard.
