I have been facing this issue since yesterday, but basically at some point the system becomes insanely slow, and the restart and shutdown options disappear from the menu, tty3-7 dont work, it freezes at the shutdown -now command(at which point I just manually cut the power(bad Idea I know)),

but today I stuck around as my system got insanely borked, eventually freezing up and giving me the screen above. the problem shows up after I wake it up from suspend but not always: My system specs:

    So, this is a ~15 year old laptop?

    The first two things that immediately come to mind when you’re kernel panicing is bad ram, and bad cpu temperatures.

    Thermal paste doesn’t last forever, and it’s worth checking if your CPU or GPU are overheating, and repasting if so.

    And, as always, a memtest is a quick and easy step to rule that out - I’d say half the “weird crashes” I’ve ever seen ends up being bad ram and well, at least it’s cheap and easy to replace?
