I have this problem as well, except it doesn't happen if I don't log
in.  I've been using ssh from another computer and it works fine.
When I login and lock the screen, it will freeze around the 2 hour
mark.  I don't know that for a fact, but it seems about the right
time.  I also believe that it will respond to pings, but I won't swear
to it.  I've got the power mgmt settings set to put the screen to
sleep after 15 minutes and set to Never suspend the machine.    I've
been meaning to turn off display sleep, but haven't tried it yet.

I'm using an update F10 Snap 1 release on x86_64.
