My 2 cents: it happened to me a lot of times (almost every time) in intrepid with -proposed repository activated (and system full up-to-date). I had to re-install but now I did without activating -proposed, and while this is still happening, it does a lot less often now.

I just want to make sure, though, that we have the same problem: my system seems to freeze with a black screen, I don't even have the option to type in my passwd. It doesn't seem to recieve any keyboard input as I blindly switched to a console, typed in my username and password (correctly, I did it very slowly) and then issuing a sudo reboot now command, nothing happened, I had to hard reboot the laptop.

I am using a dell inspiron 1545 with intel X4500HD video accelerator with a pentium dual core.

Hope it helps.
