Here I am tempted to fire up a root session of mc, and wear out the F8 key because I also have something going on that kills hid-common, so I have no input system. That has limited my uptime to under a week, sometimes under a day.
Whether brute-force killing of N-M will fix the input lockups remains to be tested by this method. It was locked sometime in the night when I woke up to feed the missus about 7ish. And both the lack of a spamassasin start, bad expired certificate, ditto for clamscand I have yet to see the complete lines before the lockup, the log is being spammed at about 300 lines a minute, so I will next time set the konsole history to unlimited, and tail -fn100000 /var/log/syslog. Maybe that will get me back to before the reboot. Humm, less got me back far enough, but what I see is crazy: May 27 02:53:00 coyote spamd[2309]: prefork: child states: II May 27 02:54:14 coyote usbhid-ups[775]: libusb_get_report: could not claim interface 0: Device or resource busy May 27 02:56:01 coyote CRON[6375]: (gene) CMD (/home/gene/bin/remindX) May 27 09:04:37 coyote systemd[1]: Started udev Coldplug all Devices.

Crazy... The beginning of the crash is the 2nd line of this, usb-common has died. Thats all I know for sure right now. I had to use the front panel reset button to reboot it, something I've had to do quite a few times since a new stretch install 3 weeks ago now.
