It's quite probably a kernel related issue, there's something in branch 6.X that doesn't play well with your hardware.
Pretty sure that even switching to Mate will cause problems if you're going to run a non LTS (5.15) kernel; which is a problem, since sooner or later the 5.15 branch will be EOLed (like the 4.X branch before it that was used as LTS on Solus).

UPD:
Nope, just now Solus has been frozen even with 5.15.

I would do a fresh install and updates first thing after install and see if problem persists
If it does I would seriously look at getting more current hardware
Running a modern Os on older Hardware you probably will have some issues Its nobodies fault really
Its near impossible to keep stuff going forever unless you regress backwards again in the Os or change to another
Os.
And the amount of time wasted both yours and the programmers is of no benefit to either
But thats up to the developers I am not one and dont speak for there decessions or help

Just my opinion not trying to ruffle feathers either
There are many ways to look at it I guess whatever fits your situation I guess.

Mod edit for formatting

apparently I don't understand how to post things neatly.
but, i'm having the same freezing issue.
i can recreate it fairly consistently if i open 30 tabs of youtube and play several of them at once

Hello,
Thanks for updates !
But :
I have the same Issues with an 2 years old Laptop and Budgie Desktop Enviroment :

  • 2 years old Laptop
  • 8 core 3.6 GHZ CPU
  • 12 Go RAM
  • 1 To SSD for Data + 256 Go MR2 for system

NB : Encrypted disks : LVM for SolusOS and LUKS2 for Data that can slow down Linux but not freeze it

Mate DE seems not affected

Best regards

Today I noticed the Nvidia driver in the list of updates. How can I switch between drivers? Or how to find out which one is used?

    Semenov How can I switch between drivers? Or how to find out which one is used?

    I would just run doflicky. If it's a newer driver -- and appropriate for your system -- it should be updated. I don't know of a way to switch between them, sorry. I've never needed to do that.

      Semenov How can I switch between drivers?

      You can enable proprietary NVIDIA drivers by going to the Budgie Menu and opening Hardware Drivers.
      If there are proprietary drivers that can be installed, they will show up in the box below the description. You can click the item you wish to install and click Install.
      Jn the end, once installed, if you search for nvidia in the menu you will find this:

      In addition from the terminal you will have something like this:

      ~ $ lsmod | grep nvidia
      nvidia_uvm 1617920 0
      nvidia_drm 90112 4
      nvidia_modeset 1290240 8 nvidia_drm
      nvidia 55844864 513 nvidia_uvm,nvidia_modeset
      drm_kms_helper 249856 3 drm_display_helper,nvidia_drm,i915
      drm 782336 13 drm_kms_helper,drm_display_helper,nvidia,drm_buddy,nvidia_drm,i915,ttm
      video 65536 2 i915,nvidia_modeset

          FAb7D So that won't work because @Semenov is using a laptop that has a nvidia GPU that is simply too old for any of the driver packages we have in the repos. His only choice is to use the noveau driver built in to the kernel.

          @Semenov the nvidia package you saw is the modaliases package, which is used for hardware detection. It is installed even if you don't have the nvidia drivers installed (which again you can't do since your hardware is unsupported by any of the Solus ones).

              Addendum:
              "....Below are the legacy GPUs that are no longer supported in the unified driver. These GPUs will continue to be maintained through the special legacy NVIDIA GPU driver releases.
              The 390.xx driver supports the following set of GPUs:
              ........GeForce GT 220M 0649 1043 202D A
              .......
              GeForce GT 220M 0654 A....."
              ([https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/450.80.02/README/supportedchips.html](https://) )
              So, in your case the package maybe is nvidia-390-glx-driver-current.
              At worst-case you can try the run files installers Nvidia (but you risk breaking everything)(I've used them in the past on Suse and Slakware, never on Solus and recent kernels )

                Would it perhaps be helpful if you could be very specific (in the copy-paste sense) with the commands you want to see the output from?

                  But (why) the nvidia-390-glx-driver-current are not good?

                      FAb7D No, the last supported driver for the GT 220M was the 340 series. You can see that it's not on the supported hardware list here

                      To anyone encountering this issue, please run the following command to get the log from the previous boot.

                      sudo journalctl --boot=-1 > journal.log

                      Upload it to hastebin (or similar service) and share the link with the Phab issue. Someone more familiar with xorg will need to mention how to get that log.

                            Any news?
                            I switched to Mint MATE. It works, but I don't like it. Solus is just better. And what about 4.4?
