So I have been getting green screen of death on this new computer build of mine. This new computer is the first time I have run linux as I am NOT paying Microsoft any more of my money. The green screens started happening immediately I had originally thought it was due to old drivers at first but I updated every last thing I could find and it is still happening. AI told me that it could be a corrupted file system and suggested a command but it did not seem to do anything and I do not know why. Please help with this and any other suggestions on why I may be greenscreening. It is very intermittent, if I am online for 17 hours it will happen once or twice. Anyway, here is the command the AI gave me and its results…

fsck / btrfs --check --repair fsck from util-linux 2.40.4 If you wish to check the consistency of a BTRFS filesystem or repair a damaged filesystem, see btrfs(8) subcommand ‘check’.

Probably a super newb question but I am a super newb here in Linux lol

Thanks in advance

    I have a 9070xt and a 7600x. I was getting game crashes for a solid week. Although no green screens. Check which version of Mesa you are on, if it’s not the latest, do the upgrade from the terminal. I think you want 25.0.x. This solved my issues it’s been solid since. 9070XT support improved a lot over the last month. I don’t recall the commands to check Mesa version, etc. but that’s something AI should be able to give you. For whatever reason, updating via the GUI did not work for me.

      I tried this one already, saw it when I was googling possible solutions. I am also starting to figure it is a hardware issue. I was very uncertain being new to Linux I wanted some software input but it is not looking good for an easy software fix.
