Fedora 13 Desktop freezes

[xander2k]

Hello all,

I have the same problem on FC14 X86_64 on 2.6.36.1 kernel. The desktop keeps freezing from time to time,very randomly , mouse moving, music playn' but GUI freezes. I am able to go to F2-F6 terminal , the strange thing is that i have to hit Ctrl+alt+F2 , normally i'd use just ALT+F2. I'm on ATI Radeon x1550 graphics.

I found that was my HDD that was freezing the system.
Try install same distribution on other HDD and test....
