Hope I picked the right forum category to post in. I’m actually having couple of weird problems with this system but will start with that the system is hanging when running updates (pacman -Syu). Some background, this is a newly installed Manjaro system using ISO downloaded a week ago (just the default xfce version).
First time running pacman -Syu and it will start going through the download process of several hundred package updates. It randomly freezes with the most recent packages at the bottom hanging at random percents. I open a new tab terminal and can ping my router and 8.8.8.8.
Other weird issues so far with using this system 76 meekat someone gave me. I’ve tried the updates several times and keep reproducing this issue with it handing. I’ll do a shutdown -r now come back into the system unlock the pacman db and try again. I even tried reinstalling from the USB ISO and totally start over. Twice the clock has been way off (certificate is not yet valid message) so I fixed by running ‘timedatectl set-ntp true’
I’m not sure what commands or outputs would be helpful to get started on this. I wonder if its a hardware issue. Also when the system hangs im usually no logner able to ssh into it. This is being setup as a small home server but for the pacman updates issue I have a local monitor and keyboard connected.
One other weird issue if that’s not enough a few times the system seemed like it went to sleep, display/monitor turned off. I went back later and disabled that settings but it still happened if I leave it running for hours. When I tap the keyboard to wake the system up its like it rebooted itself. I tried to check logs for kernel or crash using some commands I found online but didn’t find anything.
Apologies for throwing many weird random issues together. I’m just not sure where to start as this is a fresh install I’m trying on some used hardware. Maybe I need to replace the small internal cmos battery? But would that be causing all these weird problems?
