Hello,
I experience this issue since some weeks and it's quite annoying. My system is Arch Linux with KDE as DE, all packages are up to date.
Completely random does my system freeze without any response - it's not even responding to SysRQ shortcuts (and yes, they are enabled). Nothing. I always have to do a hard reset by pressing the reset button. The issue is (that's at least my guess) application independet since I already experienced it in Firefox, QtCreator, Kate and some other applications.
journalctl tells me:
Nov 26 15:42:41 arch-linux systemd[926]: Started Accessibility services bus.
Nov 26 15:43:34 arch-linux systemd-coredump[2268]: Process 1123 (baloo_file) of user 1000 dumped core.

Does anyone have some kind of idea what may be the cause of my issue?
If you need more information, just ask.
Thanks!

While baloo_file is an annoying nuisance with KDE, I doubt it's possible to cripple your system like that, so this may have nothing to do with your system freezing. To eliminate it as a possibility, have you tried disabling baloo?
Offline
Not yet.
However, the freezes are completely random and I am unable to reproduce them. So there is the possibility that there won't be freezes for days although that's not the real issue.
But I'll give it a try.

Hi, I'm back, had another freeze today.
This time nothing, what could have caused the freeze, is in the log files. baloo is still disabled.
Kernel: 4.19.4 (I'm currently updating it). But since I have the issue for months, I don't think kernel 4.19.11 fixed it.
Does nobody else experience these freezes?

I'm having this exact issue. krunner freezeing, graphic glitches, chromium regularly freezing. I've noticed that all of the freezing always occurs on my laptop monitor (I have a dual monitor setup, laptop monitor + external, both of them 4K panels. Using only integrated intel card and have nvidia disabled).
I had no issues on kernels prior to 4.19.x. I don't have issues with LTS kernel now as well, so it must be something kernel related. The problem is that 4.19 is the next LTS release if I'm not mistaking and once this propagates in Arch, my system will become completely unusable.
Logs don't show anything for me except baloo exception.

Another freeze with kernel 4.19.11. No log entries.
I have a setup with an AMD RX560 graphic card and two monitors.
For me, the issue also existed with kernel versions <4.19.

@Caspian, I'm not sure whether you experience the same as OP, which sounds pretty much like a kernel panic while you seem to perceive userspace issues?
(Might still be related)
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ge … nel_panics
You can try to run "dmesg -w" in a terminal emulator (probably w/o compositing) and wait for the panic, you *might* get some errors fired before that *could* provide leads for further investigation.
Other than that, kernel panics are a PITA to investigate :-(

Set up a SSH daemon. The kernel might survive some crashes.
