In fact no.

Since the issue is apparent in both current Maverick install and a
brand new Natty, you cannot reproduce it and the Ubuntu guys say it is
a Lucid bug, I'm probably facing a local problem, a hardware issue.

I intend to test my station again, stripping it of any unnecessary
add-ons, such as one suspicious USB connected, cheap, multiple card
reader (never used it). Also, I will test this issue on a couple of
stations nearby.

However as I'm dealing with this issue for a long time now and already
accustomed to restarting smbd and hardware testing will require
switching off the system, grabbing a screwdriver, bringing in the
compressor to to clean the unit, its neighbors and all the stuff we
should do given he opportunity, I think it won't be done during this
long weekend (beginning on Thursday).

Happy Easter, if you're a Christian, a nice weekend, if you are not.
One way or the other, enjoy the chocolate sale afterwards.
