I am asking this as there does not seem a clear way to diagnose the problem. I have searched several sites including this one.
After a few minutes Xubuntu freezes and I can't use the mouse or keyboard. I need to hard reboot but the cycle starts again. I have a desktop PC running Xubuntu 14.04 LTS on kernel 3.13.0-48-generic. It is an older PC.

I am also seeing this issue on Kubuntu 14.04. It started after the update to kernel 3.13.0-48-generic
You can restart the system without hard resetting it by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1 (brings you to command prompt) Login and then type: "sudo shutdown now -r" this will at least allow you to bring down the system cleanly.
I am going to boot into an earlier kernel until there is a new kernel. Here is a link to an article on how to do it: Pressing shift does not get me into any grub menu Update: Issue had nothing to do with the kernel revision
