Arch Linux crashing

tankz · 2024-06-12 15:37:26

I tried quite a few Linux Distributions now, including Arch Linux (which I‘m running right now).
All of the Linux Distributions I ran, crashed.
However, Windows 11 runs smoothly without any issues.
I copied the output of „journalctl -p err“ this is what it outputs: https://pastebin.com/cH4pUJdU

I also tried checking for the erroring USB Port, however I couldn’t find it, I tried every USB-Port which was available.

I heard it could be NVIDIA which causes some issues. I‘m gonna list my hardware down below.

Mainboard: ASRock B650 PG Lightning with BIOS Version 3.01
CPU: AMD RYZEN 5 7600
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1060 (temporarily)
RAM: G.SKILL 5600 MHz DDR5

Generally please post the full journal e.g.

journalctl -b #for the current boot, if you're forced to reboot, use -b-1 -2 and so forth for relevantly prior boots)

Of the context we do have the FS issues read the most worrysome, make sure your drive is fine: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/S.M.A.R.T.#Run_a_test -- run a test, then post the result of smartctl -a

also because it lead to all sorts of weird, make sure windows hibernation is disabled https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dual_b … ibernation

What exactly does that mean?

The filesystem errors are likely the result of an unclean shutdown, discord some undisclosed other process crashed and systemsettings aborted in the firewall config module, but none of that is likely an issue.
Windows "fast-start" aside, there're known ryzen issues: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Ryzen#Troubleshooting

With that, I mean that any previous Linux Distributions like EndeavourOS, Debian, etc. also had the same issue. And I think that the Arch is the most stable of them all.

Anyway, Thank you for your help, I‘ll try to do it Tomorrow when I‘m home.

No, what "crashed" means. Exactly. Symptoms, conditions, etcetc.

Well, it always happened randomly, my mouse pointer froze, my WiFi got disconnected, and a few seconds later the machine completely became unresponsive.
The only way to get it working again was force shutting it down and Powering it again.

I just ran the commands and made pastebins for it;

For the journalctl -b: https://pastebin.com/NW0xbUZx
For the smartctl: https://pastebin.com/hjDdP0Qr

I see you were viewing an image in the log. Did your system crash after that?
Also, what about setting default systemd target to multi-user by `systemctl set-default multi-user.target`, then reboot, then wait for a while and see if it crashes? If it does, then the crash is unrelated to the graphical environment, and it's not if it doesn't crash otherwise. Oh by the way, you'd better do nothing while you are waiting for the crash.

Also other replies which talk about Windows made their point. Did you shutdown your Windows cleanly before switching to Linux? Like you should shutdown instead of hibernate e.t.c..

That's a mislabled Web/P

All of the Linux Distributions I ran, crashed.

Did you already try to get more power to the cores or limiting the c-states?
