Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.35-25-generic

lsb_release -rd:
Description:    Ubuntu 10.10                                                    
               
Release:        10.10

Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-25-generic

Only happened to me when i wasn't in front of the laptop.. so i thought
it is related with powersave options but i disabled suspend and even
block screen so it shouldn't be related with that anymore. I just leave
the laptop working and (not always) when i come back the screen is black
(turned off actually) and nothing is responding. Also CPU must be 100%
cause the cooling system is working really fast.

These are the last line in /var/log/kernel before the hang (notice the
last line: system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b):

Also might be important this: the first lines on kernel log i got are (when i 
boot my laptop):

But i checked for ram memory issues with several programs and it
shouldn't be a physical problem.
