Bluefin randomly freezes

Bluefin
1

I’ve been having trouble with Bluefin freezing on my latest install. I’m using a Lenovo ThinkCentre M715Q 256GB, AMD Ryzen 5 2400GE, 3.2 GHz, 16gb Ram. Is there a way to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to get it unstuck? I remember using a way to kill a program when I used KDE years ago. Also, where would I look to determine what is causing it to freeze? So far, pushing the power button to shut it down is the only way to get out of it. When I reboot, it’s working again.

Thanks.

I switched to stable, and it’s still freezing. I also had it freeze today with another computer.

I had the problem with a freezing system with fullscreen applications. E.g. when watching a youtube video in firefox in fullscreen.
For me it helped to use flatseal to change the firefox flathub package to only use X11 and disable Wayland. Also add this environment variable in flatseal for firefox :

I’m not using Firefox or watching videos when it happens. Unfortunately, it froze three times today.

How did you find the error log? How did you find the critical errors?

What you can try is to rebase to the -latest stream. Atleast that way you can check if its a kernel regression, which is pretty likely knowing all the issues AMD has been having with its kernel drivers.
