i just upgraded my linux machine from suse 9.1 to 9.3 last night. for some reason now when im logged into like window maker, gnome, or kde after and hour or sometimes less the gui freezes. i can still log in through ssh using putty or from my other linux mahcine i have here. i can work in putty or through console on other linux machine but the gui on the local machine is frozzen and the only way is to restart the whole machine becuase everything is locked up.
 
but the strange thing is is that everything is locked up but i can move the mouse but when i click on stuff nothing happens cause everything is frozzen up.
 
what are some cause that could be causing this. is it video drivers, X its self. what could it be?
