ACPI BIOS Error (bug)

Help me please! I have installed Arch Linux at the beginning current year, but recently i have had problems given because the laptop does not respond having to press the button to be able to restart it.

After restarting, in a terminal I run the following command: sudo journalctl --since="2021-06-22 00:00:00" -p 0..3 > log.txt

the output:

-- Journal begins at Wed 2021-06-16 13:15:46 CDT, ends at Wed 2021-06-23 09:45:08 CDT. --

Re: ACPI BIOS Error (bug)

Please use code tags for pasting outputs: https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

The ACPI errors are harmless and irrelevant. From that journal snippet, before being forced to restart, you get oom killer invocation for chrome. If you ran out of RAM that would generally lead to the behaviour you described if the system is unable to relevantly free memory. Do you have a SWAP partition set up? Is there any rhyme or reason to the out of memory instance, e.g. where you actually out of memory? You'll probably want to keep an eye on that.

General things, remove xf86-video-intel if installed.

Maybe post an actual full journal from an affected boot, that isn't filtered for just error messages.

Re: ACPI BIOS Error (bug)

Thanks for reply

If there is a partition created for the swap, then the output of: fdisk -l

Disposit.    Inicio  Comienzo                   Final         Sectores      Tamaño   Id   Tipo
/dev/sda1    *                2048        964691967     964689920           460G  83   Linux
/dev/sda2           964691968        976773167       12081200            5,8G    5   Extendida
/dev/sda5           964694016        976773167       12079152            5,8G  82   Linux swap / Solaris

Sometimes it usually happens during the early morning, sometimes while I'm doing my work. The programs that I generally have open to carry out my activities are: PhpStorm, DataGrid, Visual Studio Code, Postman

and browsers: Firefox and Google Chrome.

The occasions in which I have been able to notice that it happens: I have the same programs open and only browsing the Internet or checking my personal emails is when the screen is captured and it does not let me do anything.

I have reviewed and do not have installed the: xf86-video-intel

I have run the command: sudo pacman -R xf86-video-intel and the output is as follows:

error: no se ha encontrado el paquete: xf86-video-intel

The complete output of journalctl is as follows:

log journalctl

Thanks in advance!

Re: ACPI BIOS Error (bug)

The journal you posted only contains the user's journal.  Please post the system journal.  You would need to be root or in the  groups systemd-journal,  adm or wheel to access it.
See the tip box from pastebin to post the output to a pastebin rather than a generic file hosting site.
