Hi everyone!
<<< I cannot reproduce the problem anymore. >>> I opened some user apps: smplayer playing radio, system monitor, gnome terminal and two root terminals and synaptic. I used 3 workspaces and I could move freely from one another, either hitting the upper left hand corner or clicking on Activities. I also put top to run as root on <ctrl-alt-F1> and sudo tail /var/log/messages to run on <ctrl-alt-F2> as user, just to give machine some extra work. System is fine. As information: - I downloaded Debian 8.2.0 DVDs at Nov 8th, 2015 about. - Just because of the problem, I made a second installation full format, etc. - I changed video from i915 on-board to PCIe nVidia (i915 blacklist); - I used both nouveau and proprietary nVidia drivers. - I changedback to i915 on board only. The freeze problem was always there! Then I explored the logs and sent the bug report. As I use to update my system manually in a regular basis I believe the updates took care of the problem. By now, my job doesn't give me a chance to install without updates and try again. Unfortunately, no time for that. Now I'm glad with my Gigabyte Z97N-D3H board running fine Debian 8.2.0 Gnome. Thanks for your reply, sorry for the inconvenience I did not plan to give you.

Guys, I'm overwhelmed now. Too many things in a short time, trips and so on. By now I'm not using any root window inside user login - just to make sure I'll not have troubles. I will try in a near future (April 21st?) and answer you. Sorry.
