Toyota Supra

Thanks for the help. If it’s the hardware then it’s the hardware. I will try a few more things like booting from the drive in a different PC, but I may have to spend some money.

Checked the logs in Windows, you’re right! A corrected hardware error has occurred from PCI Express Root Port. I reseated the drive with no change.

I should mention that this laptop has always had issues with what I assumed to be thermal throttling. It would play games fine for 10-15 minutes before becoming a slideshow. I eventually stopped trying.

I have set that option and I am currently downloading a GPU benchmark. Is that an appropriate test? What should I be looking for in dmesg?

Installed Linux Mint on my old personal laptop (Dell XPS 9560) and unfortunately ran into some issues that made me switch back to Windows. I really want to make it work

It seems to have revealed either a hardware bug or failing hardware in the NVMe drive.

First problem was log spam that filled up the partition:

Some forum posts I found (example) suggested that this was a hardware bug and I could set pcie_aspm=off in grub to work around it. This stopped the log spam and everything seemed to be working fine.

Later while I was doing some programming, everything froze for a while. When it came back, the partition was set to readonly. It wouldn’t boot on restart and loaded up busybox instead. I was able to set it to writable, but it happened again soon after.

I decided to switch back to Windows where there doesn’t seem to be any issues.

I really want to make it work. If it’s failing hardware then I have no choice but to replace the drive, but if it’s just a bug then I want to find a fix without buying new hardware. That would kind of defeat the point for me and I don’t want to spend the money.

I would appreciate any help. I booted into Mint again to grab the logs and I really want to keep using it.

I know a former teacher in China who told me that it’s a very respected profession there, in the same way that doctors and lawyers are respected in the west.

PB + banana (or honey if I’m out) is my go-to!

Wow, no, no connection! I need to read this book now so I can read about my cat!

What do you mean?

“Epic judge”?

Thank you for sharing such a tender and adorable part of your life!

I decided to read through their “about us” page and this just isn’t true, unless he is using a pseudonym and lying about all of the other writers/researchers.

I have configured systems like Okta and this detail almost makes me believe this is a real leak. 😂

Most of the food in the area of Spain I visited (South) was bad because it was made for British tourists. Had no idea it was going to be like that.

Gibraltar was cool despite being even more British.

Can you give some tips on how to do that? I want to start using Mastodon but right now my feed just isn’t great.
