Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I've just (freshly) installed Ubuntu Karmic on my in-laws’ computer.  I
was hoping to impress them with Linux goodness, but unfortunately we are
facing frequent random crashes.  Half the time the X session ends
without warning, returning us the GDM log-in screen.  Half the time the
system totally freezes, accepting no more input of any kind.

I've noticed that it happens very very frequently if I open the Language
Support window (I needed to install Japanese support).

Please tell me how to collect data to help you in ascertaining the
cause.
