Bazzite Green Screen Error

Bazzite
1

Hello, I’m a newcomer and just received a green screen error which was quite worrying. I checked a bit online and some of the solutions were to install some software for Gnome but I thought we were trying to avoid that so I thought to ask for help here. The issue may be caused by Gnome and I’m really hoping its not hardware failure. Could you please help me understand and maybe fix the issue?

I’m using Bazzite, haven’t added any Gnome extensions and only installed mullvad vpn as a layered package.

My journalctl logs:

Hey, the issue has now repeated twice today. I really don’t know what else I can do but this has become quite bothersome, could someone please guide me as to how I may fix this? Or at least how I may find the cause for it?

My theory that this may be a Gnome problem continues because while the third green screen error didn’t reveal much regarding error messages, the following was seen before the second:

Note: I forgot to mention earlier but I also used “ujust install-coolercontrol”, so 3 layered packages.
