Running Linux Mint 21.3 EDGE Cinnamon iso. Linux kernel 6.5.0-41. Not sure what happened here or what the cause was, occasionally happens when using Firefox. It’ll bug out like this for a few seconds, then when I move my curser over it everything goes back to normal.
I’ve also experienced an issue where, when opening a tab or doing something in Firefox (usually Google docs), the entire system will randomly do a partial reboot? best way I can explain it is it’ll go black, flash (what I assume is) the BIOS terminal screen, then load in my lock screen; all my open softwares will have closed out and I’d have to open it again. Idk if the system is rebooting fully when this happens or not but it sure as hell feels like it.
Are these related? are they Firefox issues or is something fucky with my drivers?
I’ve verified everything is up to date like 6 times just in case.
HP laptop… That looks exactly like my stupid HP laptop with a stupid AMD Vega 6 chipset when it randomly craps its own display when opening the lid and waking up.
My solution is to keep the kernel woefully outdated at the last revision that seems to create the least problems. I can give you the exact version number when I get back home if you want.
