I'm having the same problem.  I think it has to do with timer problems...
Does /sbin/hwclock --show freeze your box?  It "sometimes" works on
mine, but it  more often than not locks it hard (especially as user,
not root) with no hints in syslog or anywhere else as to what
happened.  This is a turion x2 with nvidia mcp51

/sbin/hwclock freezes the whole box for me turion x2 with nvidia mcp51 (HP Pavillion dv9210us), but only when syncing hwclock to system time. I suspect it could be a hwclock IOPL bug, but I will have to check source to be sure. But I see this with 2.6.20 Gentoo kernel, not just 2.6.21, so I think it is a different bug.
