No idea why the crash, unless you've got a Firefox or Thunderbird plugin that's a bit badly written.
It only seems to occur when there are two programs running at the same time - F/fox and T/bird, T/bird and Libre Office.
Since sussing that, I've not had a freeze-up - except outside the front door.
Insufficient memory, faulty memory, or insufficient swap space?
1.5 Gig RAM?
I suppose I *could* test it
2.3 Gig swap?
Should be enough...
My first IBM Compat had 4 MB RAM and IIRC a megabyte of swap. It was a very powerful desktop computer (for its time) having a 40 MB HDD. Anything larger cost a king's ransom. But it ran Linux FT effortlessly.
Most domestic pootery around then had a 20 MB HDD and 2 MB RAM.
