This only seems to happen on my Dell XPS laptop (laptop #2 below) when running libreoffice writer. It has happened a few times, and this time I was finally able to get some information that may help troubleshoot it, but I really don't know where to begin. When I am in the middle of writing something in libreoffice writer, all of a sudden the screen and keyboard will freeze and everything will become completely unresponsive. If I sit there, and don't touch anything, it seems do just do the same. Usually after a couple of minutes I try to hit ctrl-alt-f1 to go to a terminal, but that doesn't do anything because the keyboard is unresponsive. I also hit alt-f2 to try and reset the plasma display, but that doesn't seem to do anything either. Then all of a sudden KDE resets on its own, and I go back to the sddm login screen. Here is my journalctl kernel set of messages for the moment of the fault at 08:45:13: ------------------ Jul 15 08:14:10 tribetrekDell.attlocal.net kernel: brcmfmac 0000:3a:00.0 wlan1: renamed from wlan0 Jul 15 08:45:13 tribetrekDell.attlocal.net kernel: [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 9:0:0x86dffffd, in X [1175], reason: Hang on render ring, action: reset Jul 15 08:45:13 tribetrekDell.attlocal.net kernel: [drm] GPU hangs can indicate a bug anywhere in the entire gfx stack, including userspace.
