Hmm okay not any issue there.
What is output of this: mhwd -li
Also, can you check your BIOS / UEFI settings to see if there is a disable for Panel Self Refresh?

Output:
video-linux 2018.05.04 true PCI
I check bios about Panel Self Refresh before. No option :-/
Should see:
video-modesetting 2020.01.13 true PCI
video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime 2021.07.28 false PCI
video-linux is the open source driver. This means it is not using the proprietary one.
You should be able to one-click install and activate the proprietary one with mhwd
GUI utility called
“Hardware Configuration”
I reinstalled Manjaro, but this time the gnome edition. I switch kernel to 5.10. Output of mhwd -li now looks the same as yours.
I found this for Panel Self Refresh and tried it on Pop_OS. Didn’t help.

Let us know if it crashes again on Gnome with 5.10LTS + Proprietary driver.
Just happend again
journalctl
shows no entry for the current time. Last entry was more than 20 min ago.
mhwd -li hasn’t changed. Looks the same.
The issue was as usual. Watching a video on Youtube and out of a sudden it freezed and I had to lock the screen.
It’s weird because there was no issue since I reinstalled Manjaro today noon.
And again. Even with the psr parameter in grub.
I guess I have to get rid of this laptop
Hello,
After a couple of days without any freeze at all I wanted to share what I did.
After Manjaro I tried pure Debian but, guess what, it happend also there. With NVidia drivers and without.
After some research about the Panel Self Refresh issue I noticed that I probably failed to do it right on linux. Which is to set the i915.enable_psr=0 parameter in the kernel. How to do that depends a bit on the distribution.
After trying it on Debian the freeze didn’t happen anymore. So I’m back on Pop_OS! with the same fix and no freeze since then. In the entire time I’m using this laptop (about 6 months) there was no day without freeze. So I’m pretty sure the problem is gone now.
I haven’t tried it on Arch or Manjaro but I think it should work. I’m mean, I found this solution originally in the Arch documentation. Thanks for that btw.
I hope this helps others. Thank you again for helping me.
