This is still an on going problem. It was working fine on Mint 18.3, then I upgraded(downgraded?) to Mint 20.3 I have been having lockups, freezes, ssh in for a while before it locks up, etc.. Very similar to above mentions of problems.
Here is the basic error that happens: [37664.592883] radeon 0000:01:00.0: ring 0 stalled for more than 14948msec [37664.592889] radeon 0000:01:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x00000000003b1a11 last fence id 0x00000000003b1a26 on ring 0) Here is the system info: System: Kernel: 5.4.0-109-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 9.4.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 5.2.7 wm: muffin dm: LightDM 1.30.0 Distro: Linux Mint 20.3 Una base: Ubuntu 20.04 focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707695 Title: radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 0 stalled for more than 10000msec Status in Linux: Won't Fix Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: My system intermittently locks up every few days. It does not seem to correspond to a particular program or action. When that happens, the screen goes to black, then returns after a few seconds. At that point, the time on the clock is static and indicates that the screen is frozen, but audio continues to play for 30 seconds to a minute. The keyboard and mouse do not affect what's being displayed, but I can Alt - SysRq - REISUB to restart. Every time (7 crashes and counting), /var/log/kern.log indicates that kernel: [353692.378886] radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 0 stalled for more than 10280msec kernel: [353692.378896] radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x00000000006e96e5 last fence id 0x00000000006e96e9 on ring 0) just before the system locks.
