Same freezing error. Clean 18.10 install Every time it has frozen I have been viewing a Youtube video in Firefox 65.0 (64bit). The ONLY way out is a hard reboot from the power switch.
I have now installed nVIDIA drivers because I need to load CUDA toolkit to edit video, but this was freezing up before I installed nVIDIA, right from clean OS install. It is still freezing with the new nVIDIA drivers running.

Then I try the "REISUB" command, but it doesn't do anything either. Only a hard reset works, pressing down the power button for a few seconds. How to reproduce? I couldn't figure out a consistent method. It is still random to me. Version: Ubuntu 4.18.0-10.11-generic 4.18.12 System information attached. Also happens under Arch Linux and Fedora. I've talked to another user on IRC who seems to be having the same freezes.
