Hi, |
31 |
|
32 |
I have had that same behaviour for some months now, but wasn't able to find |
33 |
the cause. I am now suspicious of one of the browsers (I use Firefox and |
34 |
Chrome, and always kept them opened), because all I could get was a kernel |
35 |
log message referring to browser traffic (?) prior to one of those freezes. |
36 |
For a few days now, I always close the browsers, and have had no freeze. |
37 |
|
38 |
Good luck, and please keep us updated. |
