Hello. I had been using Xubuntu 18.04 since May to November, with no problems. This problem began when I upgraded to Xubuntu 18.10, using the Upgrade GUI. I work with my laptop around 10 hours a day, sometimes more, and since I installed 18.10, it freezes between 3 to 7 times a day, sometimes more. I work mostly with Firefox, 5+ tabs open, mostly Google Drive. I also have Dropbox running in the background. It seems to happen more often when I upload an image to a Google Drive file, or while performing a screen capture. Some other times while scrolling on a file, and once while using Atom.

I performed a clean install of Xubuntu 18.10 a week ago, and the problem persisted.

This happened with kernel 4.18.0-10 & 4.18.0-13. So I downgraded last night to 4.15.0-43, and so far so good, though it's too soon. If it freezes, I'll post back.
