I had been using Manjaro for almost a year, but suddenly one day it started showing a lot of 'audit' messages on the second screen, you know, that 'no irq handler for vector' thing, and just stuck there. It only booted properly after 15-20 attempts. I had seen somewhere that Arch-based distros are known for their sudden issues, so I decided to install PopOS.
The Live USB also kept showing those audit messages along with the [OK] messages and didn't move ahead. I tried multiple USB drives multiple times on different ports. It just didn't work. Then I started getting bad feelings for Linux and installed Windows 7, as well as to see if it's only Linux that's being problematic, and Windows got installed without a problem.
However, I didn't want Windows, so I decided to install Ubuntu, because it's quite established and is known for its stability. Ubuntu got installed, worked fine for a few days, and I was really enjoying the interface, but then again, it too started showing those 'audit' messages instead of booting normally.
I haven't been able to get it to boot after numerous attempts. It's hard to keep a backup of my data because it becomes quite large, and I need my laptop for daily use. I don't want to go back to Windows, so please somebody help me. I said it's a unique issue because I tried googling, but to no avail. Please don't let my love for Linux die.
I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, on an HP Pavilion G6, with AMD Radeon Graphics, and an AMD A8 processor
