Ubuntu is freezing

[ninjeti]

Hi there!

I'm having some issues with my ubuntu 10.04 - it freezes constantly. If i'm playing a movie in any program (integrated player, vlc player, ...) or just browsing with chrome ... it just freezes.

Ubuntu is updated.
Computer specs: amd athlon 2600+, 512mb ddr2

Any idea why is this happening?

P.S.: sorry for my broken english

Hello! Your english is ok

I think this is a graphics card issue.

Can you please post the output of:

$ sudo lspci -v
