Description Thomas Spuhler 2014-07-11 21:05:58 CEST

Description of problem:
Desktop (KDE) freezes from time to time. I can still log in using using ctrl+alt+Fx and then do a reboot. 
(or I can log into the box from another computer and reboot it.)

These freezes are now very seldom after converting the /home partition to btrfs, but occasionally still occur. I still have / and /usr partitions as reiserfs.

I am not quite sure what causes the problem, but the logs somehow point to kworker but I may be completely wrong.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

This has been around for a while (1-2 years)


How reproducible:
Very randomly, (onece a week) usually when a lot of programs are open and active like Firefox, Thunderbird, etc

I am going to attach a relevant journal section


Reproducible:
