 I doubt this is due to a particular version of epiphany-browser.  This
 looks like a bug in either a driver or a problem with your hardware, as
 user programs should not crash the whole system.

 I suggest you check whether your keyboard still work after the freeze
 (caps lock), whether you can still SSH into the box, and collect some
 debugging data: Xorg log, kernel log, system log etc.

 Are you using a proprietary ATI or NVidia or Wifi driver?

   Bye,
