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.

I've recently bought my first Tuxedo laptop, an InfinityBook Pro 16 - Gen8 and after having some minor issues with Fedora on it (mainly with the Tuxedo Control Center) I moved to PopOS! and since then it worked flawlessly. Or at least, it used to work flawlessly until last week, when the laptop started to reboot at (apparently) random points of its usage. This is REALLY annoying.

Does anyone encountered the same issue? Have you identified its causes? And how have you fixed it?

Write out syslogs to disk or better yet mirror to grayling or something, there might be valuable information right before the reboot.

I've also had weirdness where the CPU/iGPU was just faulty and the IME would halt the system. That took weeks to diagnose.

Definitely reach out to support!
