Public bug reported: Twice today, I had to shutdown my Ubuntu 14.04 improperly due to system lock-up.
Each time the lockup happened, these are the exact steps I did: 1) Launch Chromium browser 2) Go to https://login.microsoftonline.com 3) type in an email address 4) Press tab (attempting to move cursor to password field) At this point the entire system locked up. The only recent package I recall installing (related to Chromium) was the pepperflashplugin-nonfree. So, it may be a bug in that plugin that is the culprit. I'm not sure, but I hope my report helps.
