You have a custom kernel. Try an Ubuntu kernel.

I had to install a 5.11 kernel so that Ubuntu works with the AMD processor. The kernel that came installed (5.8) wasn't compatible.

Now 20.04.3 has a 5.11 kernel.

Should I just update to the latest kernel 5.15 or is 20.04.3 only compatible with certain kernel versions? I already have 20.04.3 running with kernel 5.11.0 that I installed using the https://github.com/pimlie/ubuntu-mainline-kernel.sh script.

First try the normal Ubuntu 5.11.0-41-generic kernel. It should be installed and selectable in grub menu.

I tried `5.11.0-43-generic` and observed the same. The PC restarted after running for several days (through sleep, hibernation etc.). I see the same error before the crash: `kernel: acpi device:1d: Failed to change power state to D0`

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
