Sometimes it'll happen a few minutes apart, like 3 times in a row. Other times I can go days without a problem. It's my work computer, so I'm always using the same programs. The programs I use are: Google Chrome, xChat, konsole & phpstorm (and IDE). I always have all of them open, I don't really close & open programs very often.
However, what happens most of the time is everything except the mouse with just lock up. I can't switch tty contexts, I can't type anything, I can't click anything. All I can do is move the mouse around. Usually the console windows will say something like, "CPU1 has been been stuck for 22s!" or something similar to that. I just had it happen about 20 minutes ago, and I got a slightly different message, but then it locked up like normal after I restarted the computer (which I have to do by holding down the physical power button because nothing else works). It doesn't always give me a message when it locks up though. I did get a couple pictures when it locked up a little different 20 minutes ago (at the bottom).
Also, I have no idea if it makes a difference, but my computer is a Dell XPS 8700
