I had the same problem and think it has something to do with the sata-modules of the kernel. I've switched to the 2.6.23.1 vanilla kernel after this bug destroyed parts of my filesystem. So please fix that, I guess people won't be happy if they find out that a buggy kernel messed up firefox and when they try to reinstall it they find out /etc/apt was deleted and some of their documents were killed too - these are just some of the things that happened here. And yeah, I'm indeed not very happy about that :/. It works perfectly with vanilla kernel 2.6.23.1, no lockups, no filesystem errors. Tried switching to nv-driver and such stuff before but it didn't help anything. I'm using the proprietary nvidia-driver without any problems now. It looks a bit like noone ever tried gutsy out on a 64 bit system before releasing it - I just hope that this will change soon or I'm forced to switch to another distribution.
