Hmmm. I have also installed linux mint xfce from scratch. So far so good. It stuck only one time since this install. And its been 5 days or so i guess.
yeah, entire machine locks up. Yeah have tried ssh'ing from mobile and it was stuck one time when i did that during a freeze. have replugged RAM let's see if system freezes again,
yeah, i think you might be right about RAM. Because one day i was holding my latop in my one hand and i saw this screen flickering thing. that was the first time this issue happened. And yeah i can not login to tty when the freeze happens this mean system is completely blocked and is not a graphical problem. I dont think its OOM issue as i have enough RAM and no system doesnt slow down a couple of seconds before freezing entirely. The freeze is random and instant and it happens sometimes when i slide laptop so i think its due to RAM loose connection. Not sure if the RAM is soldered one or is detachable. I will try to replug it and see if it fixes the problem. btw the machine in question is macbook pro 2012 and thanks for replying kind stranger!

| When did it start to happen
idk exactly but it happened once or twice last week but yesterday it happened like 4 to 5 times in a single day randomly and then i thought switching to another distro or clean install might help but it did freeze once since i have installed mint xfce yesterday.
thank you kind stranger for taking your time to help me out,

for context, i have been using debian 12 for last 6 months perfectly fine. Its just from last week my laptop is randomly freezing and then I have to hard reset it everytime this happens, (pressing power off button for few seconds to force shutdown).
Test passed!
Yeah the conflict started way before october the 7th.
This fear keeps me back to flash custom ROM on my phone! Plus, I can not afford to have those banking apps not working!
That's owsm!
Look for a key in your keyboard labelled as "any" and press it. Setup should run fine afterwards.
Hmmm. I have also installed linux mint xfce from scratch. So far so good. It stuck only one time since this install. And its been 5 days or so i guess.
Oh that makes sense. Thanks!
Ok
Oh yeah i totally agree!
sleep works fine.
Oh, thats very helpful. Thanks
yeah, I have just reseated the RAM lets see if it fixed the problem,
yeah, entire machine locks up. Yeah have tried ssh'ing from mobile and it was stuck one time when i did that during a freeze. have replugged RAM let's see if system freezes again,
have just replugged RAM and lets see if system gets frozen again.
yeah probably this can be an issue.
yeah, i think you might be right about RAM. Because one day i was holding my latop in my one hand and i saw this screen flickering thing. that was the first time this issue happened. And yeah i can not login to tty when the freeze happens this mean system is completely blocked and is not a graphical problem. I dont think its OOM issue as i have enough RAM and no system doesnt slow down a couple of seconds before freezing entirely. The freeze is random and instant and it happens sometimes when i slide laptop so i think its due to RAM loose connection. Not sure if the RAM is soldered one or is detachable. I will try to replug it and see if it fixes the problem. btw the machine in question is macbook pro 2012 and thanks for replying kind stranger!
Edit: the ram is detachable.
nope this is macbook pro 2012
