[Bug 643822] Re: System freezes unless mouse/keyboard constantly used

[G. Michael Carter]

  I was running this on my system.  I was hoping to catch something 
happening just before the freeze.

nohup top -b -i -d 5 -c > /var/log/cf_top.log&
nohup vmstat 5 -t > /var/log/cf_vmstat.log&

Might help you debug the issue.  Just remember if you leave them running 
it will fill up your hard drive.
