Very frequent full system freezes with Gnome

That is about the same crash I’ve been having…in my case, the crash is induced by shutting down BOINC…I can watch a memory corruption start right afterward…The only way I’ve been able to recover is to reboot right after BOINC stops. The crash is related to unloading a high-usage program out of VRAM.

Yes, this is a driver issue…I’ve narrowed it down to the combination of the current Mesa & Vulcan builds…I’m waiting for Mesa 23.2 to come out…should be in a couple of weeks. You could downgrade Mesa & Vulcan to see if that fixes it…I’m moving to an Intel Arc video card…I’ve fought Nvidia for far too many years now & I’m not fond of AMD. There is a thread on what is going to happen to Nvidia in the 6.6 Kernel series & I don’t want to see it.

Take a look at this thread: Plans for Nvidia Proprietary Driver Going Forward from 6.6?
