it's not an xserver-xorg-video-intel related bug. cuz I tested different
versions of intel drivers and system freezes ONLY on the latest kernel
2.6.31-14-generic

on 2.6.28-13-generic it WORKS like a CHARM!!

it defo to do with i915 kernel module, something wrong with it.. :-(

also I noticed that latest intel driver which in karmic is kinda broken
(gives me garbled screen when switching from X to console and back) so
I'm using this:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance#Reverting%20to%20the%20intrepid%20version%20of%20the%20driver

also If you will add to boot options acpi=off than your system will work
without ANY freezes, try that and report back, so AGAIN its defo
something wrong with the kernel drivers :)
