Hi!
i have a similar problem than: "Screen & Keyboard Crashes/hangs but CPU continues to work".
It is a rather new Netbook (Gigabyte T1028M) with Intel 945GSE graphics chipset. All hardware works pretty fine in ubuntu (Netbook Remix).

I experienced the problem first with JAUNTY (before and after the update
to the new intel drivers). Then I tried upgrading to KARMIC but the
problem persists (i do updates almost every day)...

The screen is completely freezing, the mouse is not moving and no
reaction to any keyboard input - even pressing the power switch
(shortly) doesnt work. I feel this happens only when i am somehow
"active" clicking around somewhere and not while watching videos for
example.

Anyhow, it is still possible to connect via SSH: I tried to restart gdm
typing "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart". It says that this succeeded but
the screen keeps frozen... Probably the system doesnt even recognize
that something crashed (just thinking)

So i ended up typing "sudo reboot" to shutdown softly...
I know these are somewhat few informations. Please tell me what i can do to help solving that problem.
