I am wondering if a JVM can be used to more reliably trigger the bug and
thus help isolate it? Hopefully someone else reading this has an
opinion...

Below is my experience and the reason why I am considering this idea:

 I have had what I first believed were random black screens, restarts
directly after login, occasional hangups, and also one two reproducible
issues...

1.) I run Google Chrome in nearly every session. I like to listen to
music using the Youtube website. As time passes and I open, close, and
move forward through the playsists on the site Chrome will become less
and less responsive. It will occassionally crash the application too. It
will usually be fixed by completely closing the application and running
it again. Maybe it is a due to an issue which can be triggered through
Java or JScript?

2.) My reason for the Java/JScript angle is that I discovered I cannot
use Open Office - certain features in it will freeze my entire desktop
session completely. This leaves the mouse able to move but nothing else
works at all. The same is true for several other select applications -
all of which I have removed form the machine. But one thing all the
applications have in common is heavy reliance on Java/JScript.

So, perhaps the use of a JVM can help to trigger this issue reliable and
thus find the actual source of the bug?

Anybody else able to confirm or refute this idea?
