Description
System randomly freezes or locks up, sometimes completely but more often the mouse pointer can be moved with nothing else working.this bug appears similar to bug ID 100306 except that the computer cannot even be shutdown until power has been removed by plug or main power on/off switch and then rebooting. The freezes occur randomly, at least once per week with the odd exception of 4 to 5 over a 24 hour period then back to one per week. My operating system is Opensuse Tumbleweed 64 bit, running KDE Plasma 5.10.4, KDE frameworks 5.36.0, QT 5.9.1, Kernel 4.11.8.2 with following hardware: CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 1400 Motherboard - MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon RAM - 16GB Crucial Premium Memory (2 x 8GB ddr4 2133 UDIMM) video - Sapphire Nitro Radeon RX 460 HDD - samsung spinpoint 1TB HD103SJ & Weston digital 2TB WD2003FZEX Monitors - Benq 27" M2700HD & dell 22" P2210t. Power supply - Antec TP750C There are four fans running and temperatures never exceed 35⚬C (video card in this case) even when running 3D modeling or video editing programs.
To check hardware problems, the motherboard, ram, power supply & cpu now installed have been swapped from an Asus M5A99FX-PRO motherboard, AMD AM3 cpu, 16 GB Kingston hyperX fury ram, ATI Radeon HD5770 video & Thermaltake 500W power supply with no change in the screen freezing situation.
