Description of problem: Fedora 21 ran flawlessly for months without a reboot. Fedora 23 locks up hard, takes about 2-3 days. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 23, Mate-Compbiz spin from main site, verified MD5 sum, latest updates. Fresh install with format. Took the partitioning defaults. How reproducible: Just let it run for a few days. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Locks up hard, no Caps Lock light toggle, can't ping, etc. Not screen saver related. Expected results: Run "forever" without a problem. Additional info: I looked at the output from dmesg on both versions, saw a few differences but nothing that looked major. The system runs just fine when up. Note that I am now running a live image of Fedora 21 on this same system (same hard drive, same everything) and it has been running for a week with no issues. I expect it to run "forever". System is not being stressed in any way. It is in a cold office environment and on a very good UPS. Under BIOS I ran every test, no fails of any kind. I also reseated the memory and ran "dnf update" which brought in a new kernel. Did not help. I wish I could provide more info. I used to write and debug Ethernet device drivers for IBM, if there is another way to help diagnose/fix this issue I would be happy to try it. I can build kernels and do all that other cool stuff. This is on an HP 110-417c desktop system. I have not tried a BIOS update yet. Fedora 22 was not run on this system. Note: I put the severity to High as I would like to use this system at work. Feel free to lower if appropriate.
I have found that this system will run Fedora 23 for weeks without locking up if I do not have a monitor attached (i.e. X is not running). Hooking up a monitor, to either the VGA or DVI port, will cause the machine to lock up in a few days.

Seems to be running okay with CentOS 6.6. Please close.
