Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 9.10 
Hardware: Hp 6735s Laptop, AMD turion x2 64, Radeon 3200 HD  
I posted much about the issue here: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1402806

Symptoms:
At random gnome desktop freezes for 2-4 seconds (no mouse movement, keyboard 
control), and then I get black screen without any control whatsoever, the only 
option is to hard reboot. After the reboot sometimes gnome won't start (hangs 
at loading screen, and drops to black screen again), sometimes it starts, loads 
all the apps but after 10-15 seconds I get black screen again. Sometimes 
everything starts normal and sometimes gnome starts in none visual mode. After 
each black screen hard boot is rquired.

I'm using compiz with awn, emerald and normal visual mode. So far I've
tried reinstalling gflrx drivers from 9.6 till current, I've downgrade
to 9.04, used envy to reinstall ati drivers reinstalled compiz
reinstalled Karmic several times, and reinstalled 9.04...and so on
crashes remain. They occur anywhere from 2-3 times a day to 2-3 times a
week.

To point out that I started using ubuntu with 9.04 and I didn't have any
problems, these crashes started after I upgraded to Karmic. I'm relative
new to ubuntu so I can't figure out what is the cause for all of this,
perhaps someone here will if there is anything I should post let me
know.
