hard freeze at various points
I have successfully (I think) installed ubuntu 6.06.1 on a Dell inspiron 1100, and had the opportunity after install to upgrade applications, etc. I did the install as a total partition overwiting all MS crap. All drivers seemed to work fine (haven't installed printer of wireless card yet). After the updates, when accessing ubuntu, I am experiencing freezes at various points. Once after the app opened, once when trying to access Firefox, once when finishing configuing Evolution (and a couple other points). Sometimes it froze when I was attempting to access an appl, a couple of times just as ubuntu opened, before i touched anything. In every case, the system froze and I could access nothing--no keys worked, no functions, nothing--in each case I had to do a hard shut down. I have no idea what could be causing this--all the boot sequences list "ok" as the program boots up. I don't really know where to search for an answer. Can someone offer some guidance? Or, even let me know what info I can provide to help diagnose this issue? I will appreciate any help or suggestions!
