After update the kernel, there are case, when system did not boot. There are cases, when it boot and when it fails.
I saw there was warning with asus hid, but cannot seen this message with dmesg and journalctl -b0.
Another problems:
- When updating system, Firefox shown message there was problems with one of web page. Plasma shown messages filesystem is not writable and shown default desktop after this. After hard reset, everything works (normal settings, pages working), but…
- When playing web games, system freeze. Only music is playing.
In past days I’ve got updated my kernel (I decided to test newer version, so maybe problem will be removed). Everything worked, so I switch to newer kernel as default. But problem still appears and since I’ve change default kernel, older were removed. I cannot install older kernels. What to do?
PS: /var/lib/systemd/pstore was empty, but unit systemd-pstore was enabled. I disable pstore, since I enabled it for cases, when updated kernel will cause some problems. Maybe pstore was problematic?
Previous kernel may still be available on /history - openSUSE Download
I have read NVidia closed-source drivers could cause kernel panic. It is repaired in beta version. I think this could be repaired after NVidia moves from beta to release.
I install additional (older) kernel, but it has similar problem. When I try to turn off computer, it hangs and CapsLock blinking. I think, it could be nvidia (closed-source) drivers, since I’ve read people actually has the same problems. When I use older kernel previously, problems do not occur, cause newer nvidia drivers were not installed for older kernel, but newer. When I order package manager to install older kernel, newer nvidia kernel was compiled and bum!
What do you think? On gammingonlinux is information about new nvidia (but closed-source) drivers cause problems as example.
It works with new kernel, but without nvidia drivers. No problems at all currently.
Sorry for write incorrect information. Without NVIDIA closed-source drivers, my system still crash (PANIC without messages - only caps lock) or hang for a while. It could crash or be not responsiveness/quite slow. On older kernel I was playing many web games on the same time + watching video. Currently, watching video could be slow or opening two/three games could cause slow responses. And of course, PANIC without an reason.
How to gather logs? I tried journalctl -b and opening EFI/systemd store, but there was nothing
LANG=C sudo journalctl -b1
Specifying boot ID or boot offset has no effect, no persistent journal was found.
PS: On older kernel I have occasionally similar problems too, but very rare.
Hi.
Today I reinstall system by hand and problems appears once, when I activate swap partition. In the same moment, I do package installation from old system. Now, I am working without swap and no hangs/slowdowns/crash/etc.
I will work without swap for few weeks and try to activate it after.
It sill have trouble, even without swap. I do not known if NVIDIA could cause issue.
I currently working on kernel 6.8.9-1-default, but without NVIDIA drivers and everything seems to work.
Hi there,
I had the same problem back in July. The problem appeared after upgrading to kernel 6.9, but I didn’t know this, so I assumed my SSD was failing.
So I bought a new one and installed Fedora (after 4 years of enjoying Tumbleweed) and everything was fine until I upgraded to 6.9 again.
I don’t know the exact cause of this bug, and seems that nobody noticed it, so there’s no bug fix yet. I searched on Bugzilla and different distro forums but nothing.
EDIT: I have a Dell 7405 2-in-1 with Ryzen 7, no NVDIA hardware.
On gammingonlinux.com was article about nvidia driver could cause memory corruption, so my suspicion could be correct. Currently, there is beta nvidia driver, which should have fixed this.
Also, I read about MS employee repair bug (very old) about filesystem corruption, but cannot find this information again. This bug should be repaired in Linux 6.11. I hope it will be backported.
I see, but I’m curious since I do not have a NVIDIA card. If you can point me to the other link (the MS employee repair bug) would be great.
I also struggled in finding other people having the same problem in any distro (basically Plasma saying filesystem is not writable) but I think this is another case: KDE freezes completely
