Unless you post the console traceback when the system freezes, how can
we tell if it is the driver?

If you can reliable force the freeze with a particular command, put a
"sleep 5; " before that command. During that 5 seconds delay, switch to
the logging console (CTRL/ALT/F10 on my system). When the system
freezes, there should be a display on the screen. Take a picture and
post it.

Bug description:
  Open this bug to trace device driver RTL8192EE.

  We have seen this wireless card on some laptops, id is [10ec:818b],
  driver is RTL8192EE.

  This bug is only for the initial support of this WiFi adapter, it's
  not working 100% well yet, please report new "not working bug" or
  contact upstream but not keep posting comments, thanks.

  
  Status:

  pull-request for trusty was NAKed because next minor Trusty release
  will use Utopic LTS kernel, which had already fixed this issue.

  please wait it or upgrade your whole distro to Utopic.
