The logs I attached previously only refer to the session AFTER the
system restarted. So I've collected the logs from the previous boot this
time, which will contain the relevant information.

I'm attaching the output of: `journalctl -b-1`

Title:
  [amdgpu] Severe freezes that begin with minor stutters

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  It starts with very subtle stuttering that you notice when moving
  windows around, then keeps getting worse and worse until it starts
  freezing the UI for many seconds. I could only reproduce it twice in a
  couple of days.

  The applications open at the time are usually Atom, Firefox, Hexchat,
  GNOME Files and occasionally Eye of GNOME. I checked resource
  consumption at the time of the stutters. Memory consumption was about
  50% of 8GB, while the swap partition was nearly full (after a long
  gaming session). Storage device is a SATA SSD. During the stutters and
  freezes, CPU usage is normal. Through the process list of System
  Monitor I cannot see any application overusing resources. Temperatures
  are also normal.

  One potentially problematic hardware device is the GPU: AMD RX 560 4GB
  (open source AMDGPU). Its temperature and fan speed were also normal
  at the time.

  I know my system is capable of handling this workload. Also, this is
  only reproducible on Ubuntu 19.10 Eoan with GNOME. The LTS version of
  Ubuntu (18.04.3) is unaffected. I have used it for months before
  switching to the latest non-LTS version.

  What I've tried to stop the freezes:
  - Closed all running applications and waited.

  It didn't improve the situation, so I restarted my user session. The
  freezes continued, so I performed a system reboot, which finally
  helped normalize things.

  I did not try to reproduce this on the Wayland session.
