I am new to Linux and have been using Manjaro for a few months now but since I’ve installed the 5.10 kernel yesterday, after maybe 20 minuets to an hour of using the computer things start to freeze and nothing seems to respond. I can’t really open any new applications and xfce does not seem to work either since it does not respond when I click on things either. It keeps doing this each time I restart.
I am not 100% sure that it is the kernel but since this has only really started since I updated the kernel, I think it must be. Even in a different tty i can’t seem to login since when I input my password it just seems to freeze.
Here is the output of inxi -Fazy
