Launchpad – Additional observation: Firefox Flatpak instability and complete 
Wayland session termination
I would like to add another observation regarding the overall system 
instability.

Firefox, installed as a Flatpak, occasionally experiences problems
during application startup or while loading browser tabs.

In some cases, these problems are accompanied by a complete loss of the
current graphical session, returning me to the GDM login screen.

This is particularly concerning because the instability is not limited
to gedit or other GTK applications.

I have also observed GNOME Shell terminating with SIGSEGV, followed by
Xwayland-related errors.

The Firefox-related incidents and the previously documented kernel
crashes have not yet been proven to share the same root cause.

However, the combination of:
- Repeated segmentation faults in GTK applications,
- Firefox Flatpak startup and tab-loading problems,
- Unexpected GNOME Shell/Wayland session termination,
- And fatal kernel exceptions in unrelated kernel subsystems,
suggests that the investigation should not be restricted to an individual 
application or the GTK library alone.

In particular, I believe it would be useful to investigate whether these
failures share an underlying issue involving graphics drivers, memory
management, or another common system component.

I am reporting these observations together to provide a more complete
picture of the instability. I cannot currently establish whether they
are causally related.

This was the first sign that something is going really bad here ... after that 
comes up Kernel Panic and Kernel Oops ...
Yes, all with 6.8.0-147-generic ...
