Lockup

[Vaibhav Vaidya]

Hi,
 
I have a dell inspiron 9300 laptop with hoary hedgehog. I am pleased with ubuntu, it works pretty flawlessly... that is it was flawless until now.
 
Sometimes it hangs pretty bad: everything locks up, I have to press the power switch to restart it (switch it off by holding down the switch and then switch on again, which means a long bootup especially if my ethernet is disconnected). This happened twice, both when I was playing an mp3 and had a set of file browser windows open...
anybody had this problem? any suggestions?
 
Thanks,
--Vaibhav
