Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS freezes, requiring a hard reboot

uz flag

I am experiencing regular system freezes running Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS on a Lenovo-Legion-5-17IMH05H with NV168 graphics card.

The computer does not respond to ctrl-alt-F1 and the only way out seems to be a hard reset.

I have two examples of syslog from the crashes. These would have been the most recent freezes, but it has already frozen once more whilst composing this question.

Please advise how I might fix this problem, and understand I am a bit of n00b with this stuff. Thanks for your patience. Please also let me know if I can provide any other information that will help with resolving this. I think it may be related to this issue which has similar output in the logs but, what do i know? I await the help of the experts. Ubuntu hangs and becomes unresponsive until reset

Edit: Info requested by @heynnema:

Edit2: here are the outputs of the two commands you asked me to run, @heynnema. Not sure why it can't find the first one - is there another command I can try?

I updated the BIOS with the latest firmware from Lenovo's website but the crash happened again shortly after that.

I have had a number of further freezes, but have maxed out how long i can make the question. Please let me know if these logs will be helpful. thanks

Did you use the efcn52ww bios update, or something else? Go to https://www.memtest86.com/ and download/run their free `memtest` to test your memory. Get at least one complete pass of all the 4/4 tests to confirm good memory. This may take a few hours to complete. Start comments to me with @heynnema or I'll miss them.
uz flag
@heynnema yes, that was the bios update!
uz flag
@heynnema I will try the memtest, thanks
uz flag
@heynnema my computer has passed the memtest with no errors.

Good job! Do you have an Nvidia video card? If so, are Nvidia drivers installed, and if so, what version? Edit your question and show me `ls -al /var/crash`.
uz flag
@heynnema, Yes, I have an Nvidia card. I checked the drivers and they were set to X.Org so I have updated to nvidia-driver-470.
uz flag
@heynnema, i have added to results of "ls -al /var/crash" to the end of the question.

@heynnema, please excuse the formatting, for some reason it won't display them with the line breaks

Regarding the formatting... after pasting in structured text, select that text, then click the {} icon to format it into human-readable text.

Good job on installing Nvidia 470. Edit your question again and show me `ls -al ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions` and `ls -al /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions`.

@heynnema Looks like the Xorg server is crashing, as I see in Syslog 1.
Someone avatar
my flag
Looks like Something is wrong! Xorg server recently got a major security upgrade, so maybe running `sudo apt upgrade` will also help! You may want to try using some other DE to see if the error is still there. (_Of course, don't install a whole new DE for just testing, If you can then only do this heavy experiment_).

@someone Thanks for the assist.

@heynnema I'm happy to help! Also, the output of `cat home/ronan/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log` would be helpful. Take your time.
uz flag
@heynnema I was able to use the computer for a few hours today without the freeze occurring, since updating to Nvidia's latest drivers. Usually it freezes within fifteen minutes or so. Touch wood, this issue is fixed. Thanks for your help.

@skypotatoes We're not done yet. Things may be improving, but we have a few more things to check. See my comment from 13 minutes ago.

That is great! @skypotatoes I agree with heynnema's comment.

@someone I will get the output for you as soon as I can. I'm out at the moment.

@skypotatoes Also show me `ls -al /etc/X11` and `cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf`.

@someone Always best to do `sudo apt update` before `sudo apt upgrade`. Good idea though. Also your Xorg.0.log command should start with /home... or better yet... `more ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log`. :-)
uz flag
@heynnema , I added the output of two commands you asked me to try, but it can't find the first of the files you asked for. The same thing happened when I ran the "cat home/ronan/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log" requested by someone. Am I inputting something wrong?
uz flag
I ran more `more ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log` and the output is huge, I don't know if it will fit into the question.

@skypotatoes Your gnome-shell extensions look fine. Don't worry about the Xorg.0.log file for now. Continue to test after the Nvidia 470 driver install, which sounds like it fixed things for now. Please see my summary answer, and please accept it by clicking on the checkmark icon that appears just to the left of my answer. Thanks!

@heynnema, many thanks to you for your help, machine seems to be running fine now.

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.
