I’m using an XPS 13 9350 with 16GB of RAM and the Intel Graphics 540. I am using Fedora KDE spin. When I am using computer, either randomly or when I start a program, my computer will slow down and quickly fully freeze. In this state, the only thing I can do is shut it down. Is there any way to make it so that a program is killed, or something else that doesn’t fully stop my system?

    How long have you been using fedora on this laptop? I had a similar issue with my xps 13 where this would happen everytime I tried to update it. I posted several help threads and lots of experienced people tried to help, but no solution was ever found.

    Hope you have better luck than me, but I gave up after weeks of effort and just installed gentoo. I now use nothing but gentoo because of this incredibly painful experience.
