Random freezes

Yaurvishe · Post by **Yaurvishe** » Sat Nov 18, 2023 10:11 am

Hallo! Random freezes of Mint is something that's happened in all versions I've used (from 18.3 in 2018 to 21.2 today). They are complete freezes, to the point where I cannot even use Ctrl-Alt-F1/F2/F3 in order to use the command line. It always ends with me pressing the reset button on the computer. They happen maybe 3-5 times per year. It's always on the same desktop computer with the same parts. The only computer parts I've changed since 2018 are the storage drives, and extra RAM. I clean the dust inside the case twice per year.
Maybe the kernel I use is too modern for such an old motherboard? Maybe it's because two RAM chips are different brand than the other two? I'm posting some results, in case they help you help me. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if more info is needed. Thank you for your time!

Start with checking your logs. The following command will show any important messages from the current boot:

Code: Select all

journalctl -b -p3

The -b there is really short for "-b 0", which means the current boot. The p is for "priority". The higher the number the more (and less interesting) messages you will see. The priority levels are 1 to 7. While "-p3" should show only important messages (3 and lower), there will still likely be a few there that are normal for your system, and aren't actually important. I routinely get some related to wifi firmware, as well as some gkr-pam messages, on every boot, for example.

Then, you may need to diagnose this freeze issue though by looking at logs right after a freeze occurs. Do you know when the last freeze was? You can see when your previous boots were with:

Code: Select all

journalctl --list-boots

The most recent will be at the end. The current boot is 0, the previous is -1, etc. If you know the last boot ended in a freeze, for example, you could then look at logs just from say, the last few minutes of that boot. Mine says that my -1 boot for example, ended at Tue 2023-11-14 08:31:08, so I might run this:

Code: Select all

journalctl -b -1 -S "2023-11-14 08:28:00" -p3

And then increase the number after p to see more messages if desired.

It's time! It happened again. Huge system lag for a 2-3 seconds and then complete freeze. Nothing worked, I had to shutdown from the power button.
I've reformatted my computer since last time and now I use Mint 21.3, so here:

After I opened my computer again, I used journalctl -b -p3. The result is this:

I also did journalctl --list-boots. The boot where everything froze is:

Code: Select all

-1 1d89e0edc1fe4768b457f0a14f970259 Thu 2024-02-29 14:07:05 EET—Thu 2024-02-29 23:12:15 EET

Then I ran journalctl -b -1 -S "2024-02-29 14:07:05" -p3 and the result was this (it's big)

I also lowered the level of warning to see if I could notice something more (the last lines are at the same time of the system freeze, 23:12:15): journalctl -b -1 -S "2024-02-29 14:07:05" -p4: result (even bigger!)

I don't think I understand what the logs say. A problem with the graphics card maybe?

Welp, it happened again! This time I was playing a video and once the freeze happened the last 2-3 seconds of the video's sound started looping until I pressed reset. Once again, nothing else worked but the reset button.
