Unfortunately so far I haven't found any clues about how to reproduce these and, as mentioned, I don't find any crash reports or anything useful in the log.
I'll try to keep better track from now on and try some specific steps.
Is it possible, perhaps, to activate some kind of more verbose logging that might help shed some light on the cause?

(As mentioned, I haven't found any crash reports yet nor methods to reproduce. I'll include a few lines from the bottom of my log so this field is not empty
