sounds like one of these...

From the release notes at
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810 ,

here is a bug in the Intel video driver for the older intel 830 and
845 integrated video cards that are used on laptops like the IBM
R30. Desktop effects with compiz will not work on those chips and
will freeze the system.

Bloody @#$% I skimmed it and it didn't register because of the IBM
laptop part and it wasn't locking, just...well, unusable. Maybe it's
semantics since I could use SSH (a lockup as I'm familiar with the
term is the computer no longer responds).

Hopefully it'll be addressed in future updates.

Thanks!

You are welcome! Sorry it don´t work, though.
