Ah, that makes sense that the "os" isn't crashing,
but that the "Desktop" is.
I tried with Chrome, and, guess what? No crash.
Then I uninstalled Firefox & the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB),
both of which use Firefox, and I removed the ~/.mozilla directory.
$ sudo yum remove firefox
I re-installed Firefox, and it crashed the desktop again:
$ sudo yum install firefox
So, now I'm using Chrome (but I prefer Firefox).
I must admit I had Firefox honed for protection, with noscript,
ghostery, user-agent switcher, dns-flusher, etc.
So, maybe those addons were causing the problem (but I did not
add anything recently).
QUESTION:
Is there a Desktop crash log somewhere?
