Hi,

Has anyone else had Abrowser just lock up a machine, or Konqueror just disappear while using them while on Trisquel 10? I'm running this on an old Macbook Pro, and since upgrading to Trisquel 10 those two browsers aren't working. Abrowser locks after a few minutes, and Konqueror closes immediately once I enter a URL and hit Enter.

Thanks for any advice!

No, absolutely not.

More likely this is where your problem lies. You'd better test your memory, might have a bad memory stick.

Happens to me all the time; I've learned to save all open text files before switching to Abrowser.
I blame the freezes on a failing USB port - worn-out contacts or whatnot.

And it seems to have been my hardware. Rebooted, and saw the 30 second wait for GRUB. Opened the case, and the hard drive connector was loose. Much ado about nothing... getting coffee...

All's well that ends well. Good opportunity to go in that case and do some spring cleaning.
