[SOLVED] MX Linux 18.2 Continuum Freezes from time to time
Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2019 10:45 am
Good day!
I recently moved to MX Linux and I am planning to stay to it and use it as my main OS. I have been using it for like a good 2 weeks now but from time to time I am experiencing total environment freeze. At first I thought maybe it just needs a restart or whatever but it happened like 4-6 times randomly. I also read about some topics here regarding the same problem but the solutions were not that absolute and kinda like hit and miss solutions. It seems like this is a hardware problem so do you suggest that I just move to another distro? But I developed a liking to MX already and I want to fix the problem. Please help me.
Below is my system info:
Thanks and sorry about my English.
