Hello All,
What I am working with
Qubes 4 Current Stable (7/19)
x230 with coreboot
Reinstalled to a new SSD a month ago
The problem -- Resolved temporarily by restarting
Several times a week there are times that without warning, everything is still
up on the screen and will to a limited degree work, but it is as if it were a
veneer of functionality. When I try to read/write the filesystem, make terminal
/ dom0 commands apps will either crash or no action will come. During the
shutdown screen the verbose text hangs on waiting. Ctrl Alt Del returns text
informing me that it attempted to restart the machine immediately and failed.
If something hasn't been saved or otherwise won't gracefully accept the
table-flip of using the power button this is particularly unfortunate.
Questions
Thoughts on what this might be or where to look?
Is there a vocabulary for this type of problem?
In my experience hanging is quite rare.
However, there are certain (bad) conditions that can bring it about. For
example, if you mount external filesystems in dom0, and shut down the VM
that supplies the backing storage for the filesystem before its
un-mounted, then the system can become unresponsive in similar ways to
what you reported. Its not hard to forget to cleanly un-mount a
filesystem and close encryption, etc. before shutting down a storage VM.
There may be a different cause to your problem, but that is what came to
mind when I read your post.
