I also have a T60 running 24h/7d. From my experience, there seems to be
problems with various kernels at least up to 2.6.26 and Thinkpads and
the problems are not specific to Ubuntu. I do use fglrx (no beryl) and
crashes appear with a quiet blank screen. I nearly always get the NMI
crash after some hours backing up large amounts of data to an external
USB drive. There are also various IRQ problems with eSata and modem PCI
Express/PCMCIA cards. I am currently testing various boot options ( pci
=assign-busses seems to be help at least with the cards but not the NMI
crash, I am currently testing noirq and noapic as option).
When using cd /proc/interrupts I do see that one USB and fglrx use the
same interupt and maybe that is a problem for one of the drivers (either
USB or fglrx):

Maybe someone else has similar experience here?
