  Due to the large number of other people posting to this bug report, the information provided by the original reporter "The Founder" has been summarized below for ease of reading.
  
  === Description ===
  Ubuntu 9.10
  
  On boot, the computer reaches the login screen and allows you to enter
  your username and password. Then within 1-15 seconds after you see the
  desktop the machine freezes.
  
  "freezes" by definition means the machine is completely 100% non-
  responsive. The mouse will not move. The keyboard will not respond.
  
  After a hard shut down (IE: unplug the machine from the UPS) you can
  reach the login screen again after a reboot, at this point if you select
  fail-safe the machine runs as expected... but only in fail-safe move.
  
  KDE and X run fine. This bug is specific to Gnome Standard.
  
  === Hardware ===
  It's a Compaq Presario - Celeron D
  Intel 950 Video Card
  1.5 GB ram

  === Possible Workaround ===
  Another user with similar hardware and freeze has reported that it is the latest driver that is causing the issue, and has rolled back to a previous version with success.
  
  === Possible Cause ===
  Possibly a conflict with Compiz and Intel video drivers?
