undiagnosed driver issues [solved]

ah sorry- i just posted what seemed relevant

c tags are for short snippets of code which are less than one line long. When you are posting multi-line output (such as something with 100 lines) please use code tags. Code tags retain the formatting from the terminal. c tags do not.

ah sorry! i edited it for you

Thank you.

We're going to need to go back further. The following command prints the journal log information of the prior boot cycle and sends it to termbin.

Code: Select all

journalctl -b -1 | nc termbin.com 9999

It will return with a url address that you should post in your next reply.

The Nvidia driver loads just fine... (the last message in this set is common and is not a problem)

You have the system adjusting the clock in the middle which is why the times do not line up.

At this point, I have no idea why rebooting would help. If the driver is the problem then it should be the problem regardless, but that does not seem to be the case based on what you have described.

I am headed to bed now, but will see if I can come up with any ideas tomorrow.

rest well! thank you for working on helping me with this. i cannot fathom what the problem is here. if its directing to a hardware issue i may just have to bite the bullet and gut my computer and replace some things or just get a whole new build.

If you can reboot and it works infinitely until shut down, then you wouldn't need to get new hardware.

That is the puzzling part that all you have to do is either do a hard boot or a reboot very soon after the initial issue and it is fine. That is also making it hard to find a similar situation.

I did find this which indicates a slightly loose power cable might be an issue. (I have seen riser/power cables be issues in the past although not necessarily with this message.) It's also possible just reseating the GPU might help.

The really odd thing to me is the "unknowns".

kernel: NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 79, pid='<unknown>', name=<unknown>, GPU has fallen off the bus.

I suppose after you reboot we can also check the output of

Code: Select all

journalctl -b | grep -i "drm\|nvidia\|NVRM\|01:00.0"

for comparison to the boot cycle with the problems. Maybe that will give us a better clue.

Do you have any other drivers besides the Nvidia-470 showing in Driver Manager?

here ya go! also i do not have any other drivers.

odd thing though, this morning i didn't get a single freeze? im still running on my first boot of the day no problem. the only difference was last night i had shut off my computer for the night but booted it back up to look something up and quickly shut it back down before it froze.

Nothing of note there. It's the same messages just without the driver falling off the bus messages.

one thing i forgot to mention was that when im not home i turn the power strip to my computer off to save money on electric bills? could it be that?

or possibly, i just need to clean in my pc? its been a hot moment since ive done that lol

understandable! thank you for trying to help me anyways i'll get some cleaning materials when i can and try that. and ill report back when i get results. i dont know when thatll be, however

[linuxshark]

so its been 2 weeks and i havent had a single freeze since. which is good! i still dont quite know what the issue is or what fixed it but ill put down what i have done

1: i increased the size of my swap file to help with memory

2: i did a cold boot and shut down before a freeze would occur

i didn't do any system updates between my last freeze and what i did above, i checked, only update i did was firefox
