--- Comment #3 from Emil Velikov <emil.l.velikov at gmail.com> ---
To be honest it sounds like your motherboard is dying, not an issue caused by
nouveau

Nevertheless there are a few thing you can try

* Try the proprietary driver (aka the blob)? Do you have similar issue with it?
Note: Not too sure if your card is supported


Ubuntu 10.04 uses quite (almost 3 years) old kernel - 2.6.32
* Can you try a distro based on a newer kernel. The best choice would be a
Fedora LiveCD

If you're still having those issues with nouveau and not with the blob

Issue 1. Take an image of the boot messages, during bootup if your system
crashes and the logs are not retrieveable

Issue 2. Try and tiangulate what causes the freeze, specific program,
suspend/resume cycle etc.

In either case retrieve the logs [1] when the issue occurs (ssh/serialconsole
may help)
