I am currently trying new distros. With basic arch and endeavouros i had no problems. But cachy crashes randomly, starting firefox after new start crash, watching youtube crash, waited on the desktop and playing with my phone crashed.
During the crash the usb ports are no longer supplied and i can’t do anything with mouse or keyboard. Sometimes the screen turns black or the picture freezes.
I will search in the arch wiki how to get logs and will submit them to my post.
After a crash, run this command
journalctl -b -1
and look for anything in red or errors, you can use page down to scroll through, then post the errors here.
There are missing 30 seconds. I wrote down the time of crashing from my phone should be around 19:25:25. The amdgpu lines are marked red in the terminal.

I made another report. kwin_wayland, your system is to slow?
I will google it, but maybe some has an idea.
So if I start win10 via the Linux UEFI selector, I get the same freezes with firefox as in cachy. If I boot directly into win10 then I have no problems, with my amdgpu. Maybe the gpu is faulty, but its close to new.
Windows inserted its uefi in the uefi of the linux hdd. So i reinstalled both on separate disks, but cachyos still freezes and i found related posts in the manjaro, arch and endeavouros forum. It seems there is a general problem with mesa or kernel. Downgrading the kernel and upgrading mesa did not work for me. So let’s see maybe it will be fixed in a few days.
