Quote:Are you checking this box during installation? "Install third-party software for graphics and Wi-Fi and hardware and additional media formats"
I've installed several times.
The locking up problem occurred earlier on installations that had the third-party drivers boxed checked during installation.
The post lock up logs from those installations were similar - featuring the 'RT_LINEAR_WITH_ZETA' and 'WebKitWebProces' messages, though I don't have a record.
This particular set up was installed with the third-party drivers unchecked.
Checking for 'additional drivers' from the current system GUI reports none are installed (hence nouveau) and also that none are available which implies that the earlier installations with the box checked would not have found any proprietary drivers.
Subsequent to posting the system has been changed to use the motherboard built in graphics adaptor and it seems happier - so far without any lock ups
