I am running openSUSE 13.1 Gnome which I clean-installed on a brand-new SSD.
At seemingly random times the machine will "crash" Gnome and drop me off to the login screen. Or at least I have not found a pattern as to when it crashes.. not based on applications running, time or anything else.
No error message shows up on the brief glimpse of the command in-between the session and the login screen.
The laptop has 4 GB of Ram and the following information:
As far as I can tell, the machine is not overheating.
I am not sure what, if any, of the log files would be helpful but looking at Xorg.log and I haven't found anything blaring like "ERROR! ERROR! ERROR!" I am going to clear out (copy out) my /var/log directory and then copy the logs before logging in the next time but if there are any logs you want to see what it has, I can post it once I get another crash (which shouldn't be long).
Through Google search I found a mention of something kinda similar and I followed the advice of turning off the auto-dimming of the screen and locking the screen.
Now I am not sure if this is related in any way, but this machine is dual boot with Windows 7 and both systems have Minecraft installed. On Windows I get reasonable frames per second (15-30fps) while the openSUSE version starts in the teens and then drops into 3-5 fps.
So what should I look at or look for?
Thank you.
