Since moving from f13 to f14 (fresh install) on my laptop (lenovo
T61p)
using nouveau driver - I have found that leaving the laptop plugged in
and with mail and browser running via wifi -
Once in a while (3 times so far) it will just freeze - when I return to
it the only response I can get is to power cycle it hard.
The lights are on - the wifi light is blinking - the disk light is off.
The /var/log/messages stops recording from the freeze point till i
hard reboot.
smart says disk seems ok - machine has never crashed under 12 or 13.
Very odd ...

I saw similar behavior on my girlfriend' acer 5102 laptop. It was
running ubuntu. Both smart tests were OK and no strange messages neither
in /var/log/messages nor in Xorg.*.log. Before I could investigate that
case any deeper a southbridge on the laptop motherboard has died... It
seems that the reason was its overheating.
