Hi all, sorry if I post this the wrong place.

I have a laptop running mint with qtile which sometimes freezes. To the point where nothing responds and I need to kill it. I’ve tried: sudo journalctl But I don’t get any information which helps me.

Can anyone help to debug it?

    Can you check

    /var/log/syslog ?

    Something like:

    tail -f /var/log/syslog may help out.

    That file usually has the answers. Its just hard to find the exact lines.

      There are an absurd amount of this:

      That seems to be there all the time, and also before crashing/freezing
