Thanks for the response Chris.

I actually have been running via the command line.  No real useful
info that I see.  When I start up, I see this:
autoselected keyboard map en-us
WARNING: Remote desktop does not support colour depth 24; falling back to 16

When the screen freeze happens, I usually don't see anything on the
command line.  However, occasionally, I see this:
ERROR: recv: Connection reset by peer

Agree that this feels like a networking issue.  But, I'd love to be
able to pinpoint that better with some diagnostics of some kind.
