Tracking down cause of crash ?graphics driver
by arubin from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MSWD)
I am trying to track down the cause of crashes on a fairly new PC. Every couple of weeks there is an episode where the mouse cursor freezes, the computer becomes unresponsive and after a few seconds the screen goes black. I suspect, though I do not know how to prove it that this is a graphics driver issue. The graphics card is a Radeon RX 6600. I am running Slackware 15 with multilib up to date with slackpkg. I use kde. My impression is that switching to Wayland reduced the frequency of crashes but not sure. I can be doing anything when the crash occurs. Memtest does not show any problems.
I haven't found anything that I found helpful in any logs but perhaps I don't know what I'm looking for.
Is there any particular thing I should be looking for?
Are there any known issues with Radeon and Linux? I had thought this kernel 5.15.145 worked well with Radeon.
