I have a pc here, that after it has been running for some time (5 - 10min) stops reacting to mouse input. You can still move the mouse around, but nothing happens when clicking, the exception being that I can still put the cursor into the gnome shell. The keyboard still works. If I restart the gnome session, everything is fine again for a few minutes, before the problem starts again.
The pc has a Nvidia 8800gtx pro card. I know that there were some issues with this cards and Lucid Linx, but I didnt find anything helpful on this particular problem. I did reinstall the proprietary drivers, but the problem persists.
Something else that might be worth mentioning: At some startups there is a message displayed: "Gave up waiting for root device..." There is more, but I forgot to write it down last time it happened...
Any solutions or suggestions how I could troubleshoot this?

Cheers
