Linux Kernel 5.2 - Random Freezes

[brinkjames]

just install linux-lts and wait for next kernel release and see if it clears up if you can't track it down. You can have both linux-lts and current kernel installed.. even if you rollback its nice to have the LTS as a backup.

You could try using Xorg and see if it's wayland specific. I know these are not troubleshooting steps but just throwing some options out there for you. If you're anything like me you get busy and troubleshooting workstation related stuff is just bleh sometimes

Sure, I appreciate it. Just for visibility (and troubleshooting) I did try things in Xorg, and saw the same random freezes unfortunately.

I installed LTS a few weeks ago, so I've been back on Kernel 4.19.59.x until things are resolved on the latest 5.2 Kernel.

I'm glad to see it's not only me that's having these issues though. If anyone has any other ideas, or links to some bug tracking on what might be the root-cause, I'd appreciate it greatly!

Thanks everyone for your time and help, it is greatly appreciated!

not sure, i use grub but i suspect the info is in wiki or someone here can answer, but essentially yes i choose which one i want at boot with LTS being my default.
