i'm experiencing random freezes.
the system freezes at seemingly random points and leaves me with only a cursor.
i can reboot through CTRL+ALT+SysRq REISUB, and it does close open programs properly, though unsaved data is lost.
it happened while
-using firefox with 5 tabs open, but otherwise idle;
-using Firefox, scrolling down a long webpage. the scrolling seemed to overflow and firefox greyed out, then system freeze;
-using LibreOffice, 1 document open, editing a textbox, specifically clicking away from the textbox.
i did play some youtube videos both full screen and in a tab, but didn't notice performance issues. didn't invoke a freeze.
I'm on Nouveau because of the NVIDIA security patch debacle (bug 982485)
the system freezes at seemingly random points and leaves me with only a cursor.
i can reboot through CTRL+ALT+SysRq REISUB, and it does close open programs properly, though unsaved data is lost.
i am at a loss what commands to type to get more info but am willing to help
