Unfortunately there is no notification if something crashes. Only my USB
devices no longer work. To be honest, I haven't looked in the log files
for a crash until now. In addition, I could not provoke the complete
crash now. For testing I switched from the nvidia driver to the nouveau
driver and the problems are gone. Now I have other issues but these are
related to the Nouveau driver and the fact that I haven't set it up
accordingly. So can I assume that this is not a USB problem, but rather
an nvidia problem?
Your sincerely
