I'm getting this quite regularly with LibreOffice when scrolling using the scroll wheel. It has happened twice in Writer, within an hour, and just now in Calc within a few minutes of opening it.

The whole interface freezes and does not respond to anything, but the mouse still moves. I can still switch to a VT and run commands from there. Restarting lightdm restores the system without a reboot.

I can't find anything in the logs that seems relevant, unfortunately - looked in dmesg, kernlog, syslog, ~/.xsession-errors

Please let me know if there are commands I can run from a VT to help debug this, as not being able to use LibreOffice without risking this is a real killer for me.
