Today, for the third time in a while my desktop environment XFCE freeze and is not connectable. The first two times I did a hard reset, this time I tried "Ctrl+Alt+F5" and I did log in as root and made a "reboot"
When it happens I do have maybe +10 different Firefoxs windows open, Gramps, Transmission and Virtualbox running W10. Unfortunately I do have to use W10 to run some genealogy tools/registers, I haven't found any other way to do that.
I do a lot of "copy and paste" from V-Box/Win 10 to my XFCE environment and I do have problems with that, because after a while the "copy and paste" doesn't work anymore and my computer starts to run very slowly, it helps to clean from clipboard on both environments then and then but it still is problematic. I just cleaned the clipboards before the last freeze. I believe that this anyway maybe can be the cause of the freeze also.
The computer runs always, it's nearly only shut of/rebooted when I do a D-U, and that's not that often
I will try to remember to shut down V-Box during the night, maybe it helps?
What can I do to find out what's happening?
Can I do something from the virtual terminal? Close/kill V-Box ore anything else. A log to pin down the problem?
