[Bug 915752] [NEW] Computer freezes, forcing restart in recovery mode to avoid crash again.

[Leo Newburn]

Public bug reported:

Frequently, when I bootup and then go online when I click any link on
the browser screen, Firefox stops, and also my computer locks up. Then I
reboot into recovery mode, and choose "fix broken packages" (dpkg). Then
I can browse ok for awile, then it frequently crashes again, forcing me
to again going into recovery mode for a temporary fix.
