So, I manually ran fsck, had to do it three time, but I'm now getting a
clean bill of health (log in /var/log/fsck/checkfs says all good) on the
hdd.
Removing mongodb seems to have maybe been a factor (not sure why I had
it installed, anyway...some python thing I was going to play with but
didn't, I believe, required it).
Still having issues with iceweasel, however, being very, very slow in
loading pages and stuff and other applications hanging at the same time.
Even something as innocuous as running "ls" in a terminal will hang and
wait until iceweasel is done, so very weird.
Iceweasel will blank out, too, so I can not even read another tab or
something while waiting for a new tab to load a page, etc.
It does one of those things where, say, if I go to workspace 2 while
iceweasel is loading a page, workspace 2 being always a terminator
terminal full screen, then go back to workspace 1 (iceweasel), I see the
terminal where the iceweasel window should be.
Or if I go to another workspace that's empty, then go back to wordspace
1, I see the top-bar of the iceweasel window, and the empy desktop.
Weird.
