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?

There are an absurd amount of this:

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

    If your machine is a Tuxedo laptop, this thread might interest you. Seems as though this user was hitting thermal limits and their laptop would freeze/poweroff to keep from dying.

    +1 to this line on inquiry.

    When I've managed to get a modern Linux desktop to freeze, I've had a bad power supply, or heat issues, each time ( specifically when I have had a full freeze, where even the alternate terminals didn't respond ).
