KDE has it built in to default key binding of Ctrl + Meta + Esc helpful when in Wayland as xkill only works on X and xwayland apps.

All right, Westley, I've never had a valet. You can try it for tonight. I'll most likely kill you in the morning.

Likely glaciation, the bottom rock was likely on the bottom of an ice sheet and millions of tons of ice moving over it over time had smoothed it out.

The top rock is probably from many miles away and was carried and placed there from the receding glacier. To me the top rock looks like it is a completely different type of stone then the bottom.

This might help.

You could write a simple bash script to get memory and compare it to your desired memory usage then clear memory when desired usage has been exceeded. Then set your script as a cronjob.

Or you can just setup a cronjob to clear memory at a set interval in a cronjob described in the link.

As an alternative my I suggest a general strike? I just think anything with guns should be a last resort.

Hi all, my computer keeps locking up when updating. (lemmy.ml)

So I was wondering, is there a place you can make the --debug flag output to or if there was a default location besides the terminal itself?

Like the title says pacman -Syu is occasionally hard locking the computer forcing a power cycle. After restarting the computer the update will go fine after deleting the archives that are corrupted from the failed update.

It always hangs in the :: Running post-transaction hooks... part of the update. This time it hung specifically on the ( 3/19) Reloading system manager configuration...

I have tried to redirect the debug output like: pacman -Syu --debug >> ~/Desktop/pacdebug.txt but it seems that I only get the standard upgrade output.

Is there some other tool or steps I can use to investigate this?

This has been happening since I upgraded to KDE 6 but I don't think it's directly related to KDE it's just when it started.

Thanks!

~~Update for future peoples:~~

~~At this point I'm relatively sure that I had broken my kernel. I switched to a different kernel and the pacman freezing has stopped. Still testing but so far I'm pretty confident that was the issue as it has been several days without issue.~~

~~To future peoples that might be having a similar issue try a different kernel and if the issue is resolved, remove the broken kernel + kernel headers and reinstall it.~~
