Ubuntu 18.10 constantly crashing

My laptop is an Acer Predator Helios 300, Intel® Core™ i7-7700HQ, 16GiB RAM, NVIDIA GTX1060 6GB (nvidia-driver-410) running Ubuntu 18.10.



Ubuntu is very frequently crashing (something between every 15 to every 30 minutes maybes). The screen freezes, audio keeps playing for a short while, screen goes back, reboots me in login.



For some reason I have no /var/log/system* log files. But in journalctl I found this:



gnome-session-binary[1395]: Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop



More details:

  • Have you tried Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS? It is more debugged and polished than 18.10, so I think it is worth trying (at least try it live without installing, and use the boot option nomodeset to make the nvidia card work). If you install and want good performance, you should test some of the nvidia proprietary drivers in order to find the best one for your graphics card.

  • "reboots me in login" - so the machine/OS Ubuntu actually causes a reboot, you see post, plymouth & it reboots? or is GNOME crashing which occurs as you describe but then gnome restarts itself (you are thrown back to login screen; no reboot)?. I'd check all your extensions are for the correct version (so abi/api's match), and then ideally start adding back very slowly until you work out which is causing issues.

  • journalctl -b -1 -e will show you the system logs leading up to the last boot.

  • There's a 99% chance that one of your (too many) GNOME extensions is causing your problem. Workspaces to Dock was known to cause many such problems, and I don't know if the author fixed it. Disable ALL your extensions and see if the problem goes away. If so, re-enable a few extensions at a time until you break it. Report back to @heynnema

  • Thank you guys for the help. I have (after a long struggle) been able to downgrade to Ubuntu 18.04. The session under Wayland quickly crashes as usual, but the session on X with NVidia driver 410 seems to be very stable (been running my computer since the morning with no crash/freeze whatsoever). The only thing is that no desktop icon appears, even though my Desktop folder is non empty. The crappy thing is the touchpad support on X compared to Wayland. I am assuming the problems I was having are related to Wayland directly, or to Intel Graphics driver (since wayland only runs on intel).

This is really annoying me and I want to stay on Ubuntu but there is no way I can work on my projects like this. For now I will be using Windows..

My laptop is an Acer Predator Helios 300, Intel® Core™ i7-7700HQ, 16GiB RAM, NVIDIA GTX1060 6GB (nvidia-driver-410) running Ubuntu 18.10.



Ubuntu is very frequently crashing (something between every 15 to every 30 minutes maybes). The screen freezes, audio keeps playing for a short while, screen goes back, reboots me in login.



For some reason I have no /var/log/system* log files. But in journalctl I found this:



gnome-session-binary[1395]: Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop



More details:

  • Have you tried Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS? It is more debugged and polished than 18.10, so I think it is worth trying (at least try it live without installing, and use the boot option nomodeset to make the nvidia card work). If you install and want good performance, you should test some of the nvidia proprietary drivers in order to find the best one for your graphics card.

  • "reboots me in login" - so the machine/OS Ubuntu actually causes a reboot, you see post, plymouth & it reboots? or is GNOME crashing which occurs as you describe but then gnome restarts itself (you are thrown back to login screen; no reboot)?. I'd check all your extensions are for the correct version (so abi/api's match), and then ideally start adding back very slowly until you work out which is causing issues.

  • journalctl -b -1 -e will show you the system logs leading up to the last boot.

  • There's a 99% chance that one of your (too many) GNOME extensions is causing your problem. Workspaces to Dock was known to cause many such problems, and I don't know if the author fixed it. Disable ALL your extensions and see if the problem goes away. If so, re-enable a few extensions at a time until you break it. Report back to @heynnema

  • Thank you guys for the help. I have (after a long struggle) been able to downgrade to Ubuntu 18.04. The session under Wayland quickly crashes as usual, but the session on X with NVidia driver 410 seems to be very stable (been running my computer since the morning with no crash/freeze whatsoever). The only thing is that no desktop icon appears, even though my Desktop folder is non empty. The crappy thing is the touchpad support on X compared to Wayland. I am assuming the problems I was having are related to Wayland directly, or to Intel Graphics driver (since wayland only runs on intel).
