Comment 0 for bug 1723733

After upgrading to LM 18.2 Cinnamon 64-bit with LightDM (and some more upgrades of modules) I got crashes once in a while.
It happens while I'm working in Libre Office Writer. Computer doesn't respond during several seconds, only mouse is moving. Then all applications crash and window manager restarts.

dmesg shows this:
