Had same frozen display problem with Ubuntu, most times coincident with a very busy video adapter (MVP, Gimp, GMaps..)
Hardware: Laptop Acer Aspire 5735Z
Ubuntu 18.10
Linux 4.18.0-13-generic

Workaround:
sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
...add
Section "Device"
 Identifier "Intel Graphics"
  Driver "intel"
 Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
 Option "TearFree" "true"
 Option "DRI" "3"
EndSection

Result: Still ok after several hours and tasks.
