Hi all, sorry if I post this the wrong place.
I have a laptop running mint with qtile which sometimes freezes. To the point where nothing responds and I need to kill it. I’ve tried: sudo journalctl But I don’t get any information which helps me.
Can anyone help to debug it?
Can you ctl+alt+4 to another terminal? Could you ssh on from another machine?
No, I can’t access another tty during a freeze, unfortunately.
That’s may be a hint!
The only times I’ve had the desktop freeze on Linux and the alternate terminals fail to respond, I had a hardware issue.
In one case, I was on a Raspberry Pi, and my power supply was not delivering clean enough power for the board.
In another case, my fan wasn’t connected properly and the motherboard was overheating.
