After upgrading to Leap 42.2 I have experienced a weird hang twice already. It never happened over a few months of running Leap 42.1.
Suddenly, things on the graphical screen stop responding. The mouse cursor moves but nothing can be clicked. In both cases so far, Google Chrome was the visible application and was maximized; neither Chrome nor the task bar would respond to any clicks, and there was no response to keyboard actions on the graphical screen.
I will throw in my two cents worth because I too have been experiencing a lot of freezes in Leap 42.2 as well on my laptop, but not on my desktops. The solution I have found, but only works for awhile before I get another freeze up, is to leave a Konsole window open at all times. When the freeze occurs, for me any open windows remain responsive, can be minimized and moved about, but the kicker bar and all plasma related things freeze. I go to the Konsole shell and do a - "killall plasmashell" and then restart the plasmashell as a background process - "plasmashell &" I do this under my own user account (does not work under root) which gets me back up and running. At first I thought it might be related to Firefox and Thunderbird because I use those apps all the time, but now I don't think so because I have seen it happen when I only had OpenOffice or Eclipse up and running... FWIW, give this a shot the next time, and there are lots of reports about the problem if you Google it....
