Bug Description
Update 22/2/2019 Hi again , logged in to my computer today and noted the driver was not set to nvidia the selection option was on xorg driver and would not change this would revert after selection. Attempted changing driver as user and also as admin no effect. Did a manual update via terminal of all drivers '34 approximately' and then software updater allowed the selection of nvidia display driver. I mention this as I posted yesterday that I had selected nvidia driver and found the same issue, based on today's finding this may have been factually incorrect and maybe the two crashes occurred while using xorg driver.
21/2/2019
I have selected the NVIDIA driver instead and can report the same problem - screen frozen one internet page open no other programs. Using Firefox as per original install, each time this freeze has occurred only when connected to wireless network and using the internet. So this is an update to the original logged error report.
Have been using Ubuntu online/offline for occasional browsing or offline use since installation and no issues.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:
1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run:
ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash
Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug.
2. If step 1 failed then look at https:/
3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1.
Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself.
