Hi everybody: this is my experience and how I solved the problem
(temporaly of course, I hope..)

 -- i855 -- centrino1,6 -- 512RAM --

1-from 9.04 to 9.10 via update-manger -d --> freezes 2 seconds after login
2-freezes and freezes... googling and googling ... lots of laptops worlwide are unusuable... 2 of them are mine...
3-I don't need and don't like compiz, always uninstalled and all its libraries too... ---> freezes 2 seconds after login too (no compiz related)
4-reboot from 2.6.28-16 (yet in my centrino laptop after 9.04 update) --> NO FREEZES but NO SOUND and NO TRACKPAD
5-Try CD 9.10 to watch what happens --> FREEZES in two seconds too, googling and googling
6-download and install 2.6.30 kernel--> NO FREEZES but NO SOUND and NO TRACKPAD
7-download and install 2.6.32rc5 kernel --> FREEZES in two seconds too
8-download and install 2.6.31-4 kernel --> FREEZES in two seconds too
9-FINALLY download and install 2.6.31-1 kernel SOUND OK, TRACPAD OK , and ONLY a single FREEZE, AFTER A DAY!!!

10-Now I'm hoping someone could solve this problem, it occupied me for
days trying and testing all that things and some more... my old Toshiba
Satellite i845 PIV 3,06 GHz 1024 RAM back from 9.04 to 8.04 and always
freezes, yet in 8.10, 9.04 and 9.10.

There are a lot of people asking me why its laptos don't work, in my
family, friends... and I suspect its this bug related.

cheers, Antonio
