From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I have been getting green screen of death on this new computer build of mine. This new computer is the first time I have run linux as I am NOT paying Microsoft any more of my money. The green screens started happening immediately I had originally thought it was due to old drivers at first but I updated every last thing I could find and it is still happening. AI told me that it could be a corrupted file system and suggested a command but it did not seem to do anything and I do not know why. Please help with this and any other suggestions on why I may be greenscreening. It is very intermittent, if I am online for 17 hours it will happen once or twice. Anyway, here is the command the AI gave me and its results...

fsck / btrfs --check --repair fsck from util-linux 2.40.4 If you wish to check the consistency of a BTRFS filesystem or repair a damaged filesystem, see btrfs(8) subcommand 'check'.

Probably a super newb question but I am a super newb here in Linux lol

Thanks in advance

That's unfortunately a bit cut off. Could you run this again with the following command? sudo journalctl -xeb -1 --no-pager

Hm, unfortunately nothing obvious. And your last boot ended with a crash?

Nevertheless you could try running a Memtest (this can take a while) - it will check whether any of your RAM modules are faulty: https://www.memtest.org/

[–] Necroscope0@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah I ran that first thing after the crash

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, you should have mentioned that - or do you think that fsck is Memtest? It is not.

[–] Necroscope0@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No I have not tried to run the memtest yet

[–] dRLY@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Do you have DOCP/XMP/Expo (whichever your board may call it) turned on? If so, you might want to try turning it off and see if the crashes stop (or at least get reduced). RAM could be fine but just not stable, which a BIOS update might help. Also might help in the event that your board is one of those that have had issues recently with the X3D CPUs. There is always a chance that the GPU might be faulty. Which I don't know how to best test for that short of just trying an old one (or a friend's if they have their old one).
