I have been facing this issue since yesterday, but basically at some point the system becomes insanely slow, and the restart and shutdown options disappear from the menu, tty3-7 dont work, it freezes at the shutdown -now command(at which point I just manually cut the power(bad Idea I know)),

but today I stuck around as my system got insanely borked, eventually freezing up and giving me the screen above. the problem shows up after I wake it up from suspend but not always: My system specs:

OS: Fedora Linux 41 (Workstation Edition) x86_64

here are the journalctl entries that I think are relevant

entries for events 40 min before that.

and this is from when it happened earlier in the day

What about dmesg? if it's a hardware problem (and it looks like, but I may wrong) dmesg will print some usefull data

sudo dmesg -Tw

-T form human redeable timestamp and -w to follow (like tail -f)

Also, about that hard reset that you did, Linux magic keys are your friends if your are not facing a kernel panic, I have this key combo engraved in my head like a rune:

Press and hold Alt + PrtSc (not Alt+Gr) and then press only one time each (and while holding Alt + PrtSc) E + I + S + U + B

PrtSc maybe be SysRq in your keyboard depends on the manufacturer, architecture or how old it is. Also wait one or two seconds between keys when pressing EISUB.

Edit: the rune in my head was wrong, fixed it

I tried sysrq then, now i know why it didn't work sysrq: This sysrq operation is disabled.

nothing useful in dmesg, at least to me

Looks like SysRq keys are not enable in your distro by default, don't know the reason but Fedora kernel devs would known better than me.

Just for curious, did you installed some gnome extension recently? try this

grep -i gnome-shell /var/log/syslog* | grep -i exten

there are gnome extensions but they were installed over a year ago and have been disabled for more than 6 months

grep: /var/log/syslog*: No such file or directory

I am getting this error but yes there were some JS errors that I attribute to extensions like

JS ERROR: TypeError: this.actor is null

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
