Description jamespharvey20 2015-09-13 00:16:27 UTC 
I experience a complete lockup every 1-3 days, except the mouse cursor still moves.  Keyboard LED's don't flash.  Num/Caps/Scroll Lock doesn't toggle the keyboard LED's.  Can't switch to text tty's.  Can't ping its IP or ssh into from another machine.  Proprietary nVidia driver works fine.  This has been happening since I switched to nouveau a few months ago.
