Public bug reported: As per summary, shortly after booting up Hardy it will lockup forcing me to hard reset the system. This usually happens within 5 - 10 minutes of boot up.
Once I forcefully turn off the power, then one of 2 things could occur. First, when I turn on the power shortly after turning it off, the system fan runs real loud and the system doesn't boot (not even POST). Second, the system boots back up normally (usually when I leave it off for a minute or two) and everything is fine. I could even reboot numerous times and the lockup doesn't happen anymore until I turn off the system and leave it off for at least a few hours. The lockups occur regardless of whatever I'm doing (web browsing, update, apt-get, even just idling the system). If I'm not using the mouse when the lockup occurs, then the mouse pointer seems to not be affected, but the rest of the system is unresponsive. Keyboard doesn't work. If I happen to be doing something, then it seems to continue fine until it needs to start access something it wasn't accessing. For example, currently playing music will continue until it finishes then the music player just stops when it needs to change to a new song.
