There are obvious gaps in your report; fixing them would be a good first step towards better understanding the problem. For instance: [2013-02-06 10:57:59 -0500] Andre Goree: > I believe this started happening after a recent update > but I can't know for sure and I can't really reproduce it... Give a window for when you started noticing the symptoms. See in /var/log/pacman.log what packages were upgraded then. Downgrade them and see if the issue persists. > Using another system, I'm able to > telnet to port 22 on the "frozen" box (I run ssh on this box) but cannot > get connected via ssh. What does "able to telnet to port 22" means? Do you get the SSH banner? If yes, when is the SSH connection hanged/interrupted (ssh -vvv)? What do the SSHD logs show on the server side? > I'm not actually using this box as > a production server, just as my main work desktop So you produce nothing at work? > Any tips on things I could set up to try to capture some sort of output > or perhaps a kernel dump (if it's the kernel crashing)? How about looking at the system logs to see what your system was up to just before a crash? -- Gaetan
