So I think I've solved my problem - I had narrowed down the crashes and freezes to when I was trying to access a single directory - my home directory. It seems the problem was arising from having a symlink to another home directory in my home directory (all of which is stored on the gluster volume on my server). Removing the symlink has restored all functionality, and I don't seem to be having any problems. It's weird though that this problem didn't come up until my system was hard reset (for some reason I'm not fully aware of). - Will -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
