I've recently had so many random freezes of the system, hangs on shutdown, panics on shutdown, freezes in system updates, that hard reset became a thing I did several times a day. Yet there were no systemd logs, nothing in dmesg, literally zero information on what happened.
I was skeptical in blaming Nvidia because at this point it became a Linux chiche, but then I started to switch to integrated graphics (disabling dGPU) and all of the problems miraculously went away.

this is pretty typical for hard crashes, ur system is so unbelievably fucked up that it can't even write to journal, and if it could, it wouldn't be persisted anyway (hard shutdown)
Same. I use nVidia on Wayland, and experience more crashes and panics than when using the iGPU. With older versions of the driver, I could consistently trigger a crash when exiting an app which used the discrete GPU (such as Steam), or by switching between a game and Firefox.
NVIDIA definitely has stability issues, newest drivers still kernel panic on resume from suspend. Only thing more you can do is try to capture debug logs with nvidia-bug-report.sh (I go in during a crash via SSH, usually the system is still responsive for a little while after), and post it to the NVIDIA Linux forums. They do actually seem to use the feedback there, NVIDIA reps respond from time to time and say they've submitted bug reports from the feedback. Otherwise, after that yeah you just do what you have to do for a usable system and wait...
Had this issue for ages. Ditched Nvidia a month ago and now everything just works.
Yeah, lol. One of the reasons my next laptop will be one intended with linux support for the start.
Why does that even happen?
The kernel is cleaning the corpses out of the basement freezer chest before the power goes out and stinks up the place.
Leave the poor kernel out of it, it has nothing to do with this. It's Lennart, not Linus.
Unmounting CIFS , 1:30 timeout ! I just wannatgo to bed....
I was glad my server did this the other day to make sure the data Lemmy put into my database is secure.
The culprit often filesystem sync for me...
Yes. Mounted network drives.
I think a lot of the shutdown hang problems went away when i switched to systemd automount
It isn't those for me tho. It's just BTRFS that like to hang. Auto scrub going? Hang. Auto balance? Hang. Time shift/urbackup doing back up things? Let's hang!
Still faster than Windows
Hint: :q!
