Sometimes at a random point Gnome stops working.
Not completely to an halt but to the point i can still move my windows and some applications work, and some don't.
This is how a terminal looks then (just like some other windows):

Notes: Not all windows are completely white, Just the text boxes in SOME apps,
And i couldn't take a normal screenshot anymore so i grabbed my camera.
Shortly afterthat everything stops (except the mouse).
The TTY's just function normally and an X(.org) reset just takes me to the login screen where (after i logged in) nothing works in X.
I get a that brownish ubuntu-theme color but, as expected, No gui.
After a reboot everthing is fine.
I listed all modules loaded and processes active at the time from a TTY,
So if you want them i'll just pastebin them.
Some last things:
I thought my ubuntu installation was damaged so i reinstalled but this didn't help.
I didn't had this on debian before.
I didn't install any big software.
So, Can anybody help me on this one?, I am clueless on this one!
I'd like to add:
When this problem occurs i get no sound at all. (normally your hear a login sound you know?)
So.. if thats helpfull!
('Sounds' like X might be a problem)
