[SOLVED] System Freezing

I'm working with vscodium and firefox. Sometimes after I open any shortcut, or click anything, suddenly the system freezing. And this happens often. Please help

I used this command

journalctl -xr -b -1 | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

here's the output

suggests the kernel amdgpu driver is hanging up for 5 seconds. What's your actual GPU and how do it's CPU/MEM limits look like during issue reproduction? Also there's docker and ollama and a lot of random stuff that's potentially taxing. Can you repro without ollama running at the same time

I use amd radeon,  I can't reproduce because it happens randomly and I can't open or do anything because the system just freezing. I have to press the power button until my laptop shuts down and turns on again to get everything back to normal. Ollama and docker have no effect, because it happened before I installed them. How to do the correct journalctl? I'm a newbie

Re: [SOLVED] System Freezing

"amd radeon" isn't the exact model,  just "journalctl -b-1" is fine. FWIW checking the vid pids in the logs suggest this is a Vega 8 graphics, which have some known issues currently: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=301798 -- presumably fixed by mesa 25.0.1 which just got released, so if you don't want to try one of the tests/packages mentioned in that thread it's likely that the update to mesa 25.0.1 will land in stable soon and properly fix this (if you're impatient you could enable all testing repos and upgrade everything to the versions from testing, but I'd not reccommend that depending on what else is being tested there).

So, I'll just do sudo pacman -Syu everyday until it fixed?

Re: [SOLVED] System Freezing

Until you see mesa 25.0.1, which is likely soon.

Re: [SOLVED] System Freezing

Mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
