What to do if I have sudden logouts from time to time?

I am using XFCE4, and I get sudden logout from the GUI from time to time, about 2 times a week. In this case every non saved jobs, documents are lost.

I have an N5000 CPU and Intel microcode is installed, system is up-to-date, however I am using the LTS kernel: 4.19.88-1-lts.

When this kind of sudden logout is happening, I can see the console screen with the kernel messages from the last boot for a few seconds, the last line usually is:  "Reached target Graphical Interface". I can see the text console only for a few secs, and then I get again automatically to the XFCE4 graphical login screen.

Re: What to do if I have sudden logouts from time to time?

You post logs, journal, something.  That's what you do.

Although if your previous threads are any indication, there's not much chance that you'll read or respond to my post as you just abandon every other thread.  This is particularly the case when you've been asked which instructions you followed to install your system.  The lack of answer to this repeated questions essentially is an answer: you are not running arch linux.  So don't ask here; ask on your distro's support forum.

Re: What to do if I have sudden logouts from time to time?

Sorry, I haven't read the answers to my previous questions recently. But I am using Arch Linux, I installed it by following the wiki pages. I don't remember in detail, it was in 2019, dec. I burnt the installation media as a DVD, and then booted it. One thing I remember: the console font was very tiny, barely readable due to the full HD display, so I had to switch to a so called "latarcyrheb" font with the appropriate command.

You didn't remember them back then either…

But maybe you really have a goldfishs memory - you also forgot to provide the requested journal within 2h…

You don't get "logged out" - the session or display server crashes and the display manager restarts the greeter.

Recently??  You haven't responded to them at all despite continually starting new threads.

What does this say about your character and your level of respect for this community?

In any case, I'll give you a fair shot in this thread if you post logs and journal data.
