Same thing on two quite different systems (different in hardware, that
is). Both are Lucid Desktop 64-bit.

Sometimes it takes a while for the freeze to happen.

One system auto-logins and it may not freeze until a GUI program is run
from the Desktop. Sometimes not even then, but later, at random.
Terminal programs are fine. I had thought this system had a simple
problem with my renaming a .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart because
the first freeze happened exactly when I did that.

The other system freezes showing the grayed login box just after hitting
Enter on the password entry dialog box in the login screen.

Both systems consistently have the problem.

sudo restart gdm   makes them work for a moment or more.

apport-collect seems to be broken, as mentioned by someone else above.
