Unhappy Hard freezing problem with Manjaro


This may be an Arch problem as I've had this happen to me several times on Antergos as well.

At any rate, I ran Octopi to update the installed software and since it would take a while I went to take a shower.

After that, computer put up a login screen, I tried logging in but the computer was frozen or very slow thus requiring a hard shutdown.

After the computer restarted it took a very long time (~10 - 15 minutes) to get back up.

I'm not sure what the problem is. journalctl doesn't give any errors that I can see and /var/log/faillog is just a string of repeating

Code:
^@^@^@^@^@^@
which means nothing to me.

I like this distro, I really do. But if Arch derivatives keep giving me these freezes then I'll have to move to another distro family, which I really don't want to do.

One suggestion in a post on Arch forums was this:

Quote:
I think it's important to mention that if you're using intel graphics, the xf86-video-intel driver is quite buggy, and that uninstalling it and removing any intel config files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, and just using the xorg modsetting drivers, will often resolve many video problems. It did for me across 3 systems.
But I don't have enough information to know whether or not the xf86 driver is the issue. So I need to know if there's some other way to find out more

Using: Manjaro KDE 64-bit, whatever the latest stable version is.

Well, the problem seems to have solved itself. After a shutdown and login it works fine.

Weird.
