[Bug 1432492] Re: Firefox and Thunderbird freezes entire system after a few seconds of use

 

I agree with Dave, but any reason why it would be triggered only by
either Firefox or Thunderbird?

At the time both the nouveau drivers and proprietary drivers had this
problem.

Currently , I have now wiped the machine and installed fresh 15.04, and
the problem has disappeared.
