@wutsinterweb can you provide steps to reproduce this issue? Thanks.

No steps involved. Simply having booted the laptop and running it and using my browser or whatever, after approximately 24 hours, it would lock up. Since I've removed mlocate it doesn't lock up. The only special program on the laptop not in the list in Mint is Viber.
