I'm experiencing an issue where my Ubuntu system freezes randomly, and I need help diagnosing and fixing the problem. Here are the details:
System Specifications:
Processor: Intel Core i9-12900K
RAM: DDR4 3200Mhz
GPU: RTX 3090
NVIDIA Driver Version: 535.183.01
Storage: Samsung SSD 980 PRO 1TB and ST4000NM000B-2TF
Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu 2204 (without GUI)
Kernel-Version: 6.5.0-44-generic
Problem Description:
My system has been freezing at random intervals. I have to do a hard reboot to get it working again. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to when the freezes occur; sometimes it happens when I'm using the terminal, and other times it occurs when the system is idle.
What I've Tried So Far:
Checked System Logs: I looked into /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log, but I couldn't find any obvious errors right before the freeze.
Updated All Packages: I made sure that my system is up to date using sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade.
Additional Information:
The issue started in the last two weeks. I haven't made any significant hardware or software changes recently. The system runs smoothly otherwise, and the performance is generally good until the freeze happens.
Questions:
- What other logs or diagnostics should I check to pinpoint the cause of the freezes?
- Are there any known issues with my hardware setup and Ubuntu 22.04 that could be causing this?
- What additional troubleshooting steps can I take to identify and fix the issue?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
And here are the syslog and kernel.log
