[KSP random freeze / lockup computer (Linux/Ubuntu)]

---- KSP Version ----

64-bit Linux

build id = 559

2014-07-25_12-26-00

Branch: master

---- Detailed Explanation ----

KSP display suddenly freezes at no particular moment. Current sound file continues to play until completed. All keyboard input and mouse clicks are captured by KSP, so no recovery of system is possible, and a hard reset is required. I have had several of these crashed while using heavily modded versions of KSP. Mostly these occured in the VAB, but also one while controlling a craft in orbit around Kerbal. I created a brand new install from the download zip file in order to start trying to track down what I expected was a faulty mod, launched it, adjusted configuration slightly and started a new sandbox game. It got to announcing that time was passing at 1x speed, the birdsong started up, the loading widget in the bottom right froze, and I had to reset my computer again.

These crashes seem pretty random to me. They have mostly occurred just as I was changing my viewpoint in the VAB. So I can't really describe the steps to reproduce it.

I wouldn't mind the game crashing so much if it didn't lock up the keyboard and mouse so badly. I've got other stuff running in the background on my computer, and file corruption is a possibility.

I've searched for information about this, and while I find a bunch of threads with similar titles on Google, when I follow the links, I keep getting a message about being unable to view the threads due to access restrictions. (I assume they've been archived due to old versions?)

[Hello and Welcome!]

Hello all! Downloaded KSP Demo this morning. Managed to complete all the tutorials and have successfully launched a Kerbal5 rocket into orbit, completed an EVA, and splashed down safely just south of the Space Base! Didn't manage to land on the Mun, though. Anyway, loads of fun; decided I may as well buy the full version.
