Help w/ crash

mvirts@lemmy.world to Linux@lemmy.ml – 41 points –

Any advice on where to go from here? This console was running dmesg -w to try and catch an intermittent crash... And this is what I got. I am using an el cheapo USB wifi adapter that I'm suspicious of.

Everything was working fine until I rebuilt nixos with Nvidia support... Now my old generations of the OS are crashing after a few minutes (display on, no response to input, keyboard lights don't respond, SysRq doesn't work)

You're only showing us part pf the error. There should be more above the list pf modules loaded that will provide useful information

dmesg > dmesg-out will give the entire dmesg log as a text file, and you can cut out the irrelevant parts

Good to know! I need to set that up next time, the whole system was unresponsive when I took the photo.

In that case it should be in your logs. I believe the default is /var/log/dmesg.log*, depending on how many rotations have occured since the error

Lol I checked the system journal but forgot to check if the dmesg los is being written 😹 thanks for the reminder, going to take a look later today
