I've also seen freezes like you describe when using a mainline kernel (most probably 2.6.31 but I don't recall exactly). The problem seemed to go away when I upgraded to a more recent kernel (2.6.36). However, I was also upgrading gcc at the same time (4.4 plus bug fixes). I never tracked down the cause. Suspecting drivers, I generated some backtraces using a NMI when it froze but decided that the scheduler was the most likely culprit (this is one area of the kernel that gets a lot of churn). I believe that a newer kernel deb is expected soon. If it would help, I'll crank up the etch-m68k cross-compiler and build a current mainline kernel for quadras.
