Update:

After looking at my everything.log this morning, I'm not sure this is
kernel related - at least directly. When I brought my box out of
standby this morning, I was unable to run anything and received an
error message about "program doesn't exist". Rebooting cured that so I
started looking at logs and found this.

May 30 03:01:01 gandalf anacron[1122]: Jobs will be executed sequentially
May 30 03:18:48 gandalf kernel: [ 2223.677424] ata3: exception Emask

May 30 03:18:48 gandalf kernel: [ 2223.677441] ata3: SError: {
RecovComm Persist PHYRdyChg 10B8B }

which persisted until I rebooted. Google power revealed this may be
one of the following problems.

Bad power supply, bad sata cable, too many drives plugged into one
molex, or bad hardware. I've replaced my sata cables, made sure there
is only one drive plugged into each molex, and time will tell. I've
also had the keyboard problems mentioned by others on this thread, but
it occurred when I brought my box up from suspend to ram. It was a
minor glitch so I wasn't really concerned with it. It may be related
to the following warnings showing up in my logs.

ay 30 13:03:08 gandalf kernel: [    0.304887]  pci0000:00: ACPI _OSC

More research time.
