After update (Jan 19, 2025), System Unresponsive

UncleSpellbinder · January 19, 2025, 5:18pm

After updating today (Jan 19, 2025), the system was unresponsive for nearly 5 minutes. Included were kernel updates. I have 6.6 LTS, ZEN, and Arch kernels. No idea if that was/is the culprit or not. I had to do a hard shutdown several times. Tried all 3 kernels with the same result; unresponsive for several minutes. Couldn’t right-click on desktop, couldn’t open any app, bottom panel unresponsive, application menu dropdown button did nothing. So, I waited about 5 minutes, and now everything seems fine… for the time being.

Any ideas why this may be happening?

Have you checked the journal log entries for these boots?

drunkenvicar · January 19, 2025, 5:26pm

I just updated now and all good. Never mind. Edit. Couldnt be boot order. Some critical update part was whirling around til it got settled is my final vague guess.

UncleSpellbinder · January 19, 2025, 5:36pm

Not sure. I just tested by rebooting again. Same thing happened. Unresponsive for several minutes.

Something is keeping the system from completely loading all the way, it gets hung up somewhere, then unhung.
As far as troubleshooting I wouldn’t know where to start. You will get some smarter responses soon!

Same.

Can you post the result of paclog --after 2025-01-19? What DE are you using? My Xfce system updated this morning without a hitch.

Using KDE Plasma. Here’s the paclog --after 2025-01-19 output…

Interesting…neither of us got any DE-specific package updates today; in fact, I didn’t see much difference in our updates, excepting only vmware-workstation and nvidia.

Bruh…

Have you tried another user or window manager?

Once you have KDE or Gnome installed, you should really have another user or window manager because even if you don’t get updates that are DE-specific, the DE depends on other packages in your system. This may cause issues when they are updated.

KDE and Gnome are the Arch Linux of environments right now.

I read the topic and updated it immediately. Reboot with zen-kernel without issues

Definitely an odd situation.

So far, after the 5 or so minutes of unresponsiveness after rebooting, all seems well. I 'll wait for another update before rebooting. Appreciate your help, nonetheless!

swh · January 19, 2025, 6:38pm

I know you use Klassy. Maybe you would like to read this articleI

UncleSpellbinder · January 19, 2025, 6:43pm

Thanks for that. I wonder if that had/has anything to do with the issue I’m having?

swh · January 19, 2025, 6:44pm

I don’t know that. I was just guessing whether that might have something to do with it

Canoe · January 19, 2025, 7:18pm

Genuinely curious about this, - I’ve never mixed DE’s, and beyond root and primary user, never had secondary accounts. What am I missing?

anon93652015 · January 19, 2025, 7:23pm

It’s not always necessary. I’m just saying that KDE and Gnome have been breaking stuff (and fixing stuff) for the last year ++.

The idea is that if you have another user account, you can check to see if the issue is related to your user, in which case you can probably fix it yourself. If it persists with another user, then you have to wait for another update or revert an update to fix it.

As for another window manager, it’s similar in that having KDE and Openbox or i3 or Hyprland installed will let you know if it’s a DE-specific issue. So, not another DE — another window manager.

Of course, adding another window manager can have its own issues, but is highly unlikely unless it’s Hyprland (or something Wayland-specific). And that’s the other thing: if you are using Wayland, you could try X11 to see if it’s Wayland-specific. And vice-versa.

ricklinux · January 19, 2025, 7:31pm

This seems strange for you. Usually you don’t have any issues. As @swh posted I also haven’t had any issues either on my amdgpu or nvidia but I also don’t have packages installed that you use and i don’t.

xircon · January 19, 2025, 8:23pm

I use Plasma+Klassy, but am not going to reboot until the mid-session interval (am watching the snooker ).

:edit: all good.

thefrog · January 19, 2025, 8:43pm

No problem updating with Openbox and no issue updating Cinnamon. So interesting you had an issue. Maybe it is something settings related.
