Any one to help me out this situation , i am a new bie with Arch linux , My x1 carbon 2nd gen keeps on hanging , I try everything to no avail

ireng · 2016-12-14 11:32:23

I think it s a configuration problem . any one to help me on udev writing

V1del · 2016-12-14 12:01:35

Why do you think an udev rule would help? Is this an Arch install or an Arch Linux Anywhere install?

ewaller · 2016-12-14 16:16:22

When it hangs, can you switch to a different console? (Ctrl-Alt-F2)
Can you log into the box via ssh? Can you ping the box?
Are the keyboard LEDs blinking?
Does it ever unfreeze?
Does the screen update? (Clock displays, for example)

ireng · 2016-12-14 19:23:28

@V1del , this an Arch install, did it following the steps
@ewaller , I have realised I can switch to terminal mode
and also when it freese and i am on terminal , i can continue on terminal with no problem but all other services are blocked
It unfreeze sometime when I press the switch off button to lock the machine then press it again and enter .
I will check about the keyboard leds blinking and the clock displays

ewaller · 2016-12-14 19:28:09

The keyboard LEDs blinking would be indicative of a kernel panic. Your other observations rule that out. I was probing to see how "frozen" the system is.

The mouse become unresponsive and instead select text with some blue color

ireng · 2016-12-14 22:24:42

Thanks for your response any way.
Instead of closing a window , it starts resizing sometime . It makes the system unusable till it is restarted for working after a short time or til I hold the power button to hibernate the system

I have tried Centos 7, Fedora 24/25 . It all behaves the same way only but it work well with windows 8

V1del · 2016-12-15 00:08:57

Which xorg driver are you using? If you use xf86-video-intel try without it and without any configuration.

ireng · 2016-12-18 02:13:31

I install xf86-video-intel and insert the below configuration and it seems to work out of box , hope it will remain the same
content as /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf :
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "DRI" "2" # DRI3 is now default
#Option "AccelMethod" "sna" # default
#Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" # fallback
EndSection

The problem persisted . I decided to format the computer with windows and c how it behaves. It s normal since then . I changed bios to legacy and dual booting with fedora works fine but still some freezing problem . i will check tomorrow how it behaves then tomorrow if all goes well i wish to reinstall arch Linux

@ireng, you really should try these suggestions--remove xf86-video-intel & 20-intel.conf--and perhaps also install the LTS kernel. They make for painfree computing on this Intel/Intel rig.

Arch Linux
