I can't get Endeavour OS to run system keeps freezing

General system Kernel, boot, graphics & hardware

do you try GNOME on Xorg session already ?

22

I just tried xorg and it worked for 10 minutes with only a few short freezes but then freezes completely again but i can move the mouse now while it’s frozen.

23

Ok now it’s working again so it freezes for a few minutes.

24

This is unusual?

Maybe odd edge case network r8168 issue?

Can you try idle=nomwait as a kernel parameter in the default grub command line and then update grub.

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

add here after quiet:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet loglevel=3 nowatchdog nvme_load=YES”

idle=nomwait

Then save with ctrl + o then enter
Exit Nano with ctrl + x

Then update grub with

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Then reboot

The problem seems to have been fixed by the changes in grub the system is running without freezing so far. I don’t understand what exactly the problem was, but the main thing is that it works. Many thanks to everyone who helped me.

So the idle=nomwait works then? Please mark it as solved if you find you aren’t having anymore issues. If you find you still have issues you can open another thread.

Edit: If you want to leave the topic open until you’re sure that’s fine also.
