Comment # 41 on bug 1028575 from Mircea Kitsune

In weekly news, it appears a recent openSUSE Tumbleweed snapshot (which among
other changes upgraded Mesa 17.0.5 to 17.1.0) made the issue a lot rarer for
the time being: Until this snapshot it was even happening twice a day, hence
why it was starting to drive me nuts... now I only seem to get this freeze
every 2-3 days of uptime, which is so much more bearable! I worry whether the
next snapshot will make the issue more frequent again rather than better...
clearly it's one of the important system packages that's messing with it, but I
still have no idea which and how.
