Freshly updated to Xubuntu 16.04.1 (Linux C3PO 4.4.0-38-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 6 15:42:33 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux), deleting all old data on /. Today I experienced three crashes in a row browsing one website with gifs. Still memtest finds nothing wrong with the RAM.

The error can be triggered more likely by playing MP4 and WebM Videos in Firefox or VLC, but it also happened with the Parole player or idling. I first thought of an hardware issue, but memtest gave me no clue AND it also happened similarly inside a Oracle Virtual Box on another, completely different hardware. The only similarity was using 64-bit SMP (mine is AMD, theirs were Intel). Most of the time the system freezes completely, repeating the last half of a second of the sound that was playing over and over again. I also have seen a few kernel panic screens (which I am hopefully able to attach) with multiple kernel versions. If the error is pointing to the ATi graphic's driver, I also want to add that I am not using any proprietary drivers. Even though kernel panics aren't logged, I try to include everything I can think of. For the logs attached let me hint at the time of the last panic which occured at March 17th between 11:17 and 11:20 CET.
