Linux freezing for no reason?

Question

linux

Guys, hello! There was such a situation in which I have been fighting for more than a month - freezing linux (checked on: kubuntu + ubuntu 18.04 + 19.04 and manjaro KDE). This happens absolutely at random times when working with LiveCD or if you're lucky, install it in the installed version. It hangs tightly, the hard drive does not spin, at any moment I opened a program (random), either I expanded the window, or I hovered over the clock bam, it hung tightly, even if I just pulled the mouse. On a clean system.

III Strange as it may seem, everything works on the laptop!
The disk is marked in GPT. Windows 10 is installed in parallel . There is
no overclocking.
Any guesses?

Answer 1

Most likely video. Either firewood is being driven, or modeset / nomodeset. Replace firewood with others (if nouveau - with nvidia and vice versa). Try to update the firewood version (of course, given the video support - it's quite old). If there is an integration - I'll try to switch to it.

Answer 2

Run somewhere on the second monitor or in the always open terminal something like
And see what appeared there during the hang. You most likely have a kernel panic.
You can also use the same journalctl to try to look at the logs of the previous session, but there the most important thing may not get on the disk.

Answer 3

I got up dead on my laptop with Intel guts on 16.04, and searched for a problem for a long time until I found this: ... “If it hangs tightly on distra higher than 14.04.3, then 99% that this is due to Intel graphics. I had regular freezes after 20 - 40 - 90 min. It was decided so sudo gedit /etc/default/grub bring the line GRUB_MDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to the following form (if nothing was added) GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_idle.max_cstate=1" Save, close. sudo update-grub And reboot. The problem should disappear if Intel HD is to blame. "... IT HELPED ME. I specifically drove for a week without reloading the video in the chrome browser.

Answer 4

Clearly this is a hardware issue.
Such problems are looked for by assembling the minimum working configuration and then adding parts.

Answer 5

sneakers, and even with a rather old vidyahy, that's the result.
You can check if you remove \ change for the test \ on the line of video.
And it would be nice to attach more logs.

Answer 6

Exactly with the same symptoms, about once a week or two, a machine suddenly hangs up on Ryzen 5 with an AMD Radeon HD 7770. Recently, it just hung like that a minute after turning it on.
Started after updating Xubuntu to 18.04.
