gnome-shell coredumps with kernel 6.18.1. Reverting to 6.17.9 solves

gps1539 · 2025-12-21 19:30:47

After updating to linux kernel 6.18.1, gnome intermittently started to coredump and return to the login screen.

I initially tried reverting the mesa update, but the problem persisted. Reverting linux and linux-header to 6.17.9 seems to have solved the issue.

My PC runs the amdgpu driver on a Radeon HD 7750

Attaching 2 dump outputs here:

Can you expand, thanks.

I was on the latest mesa and kernel version when I noticed the issue. I reverted mesa (usual suspect for issues like this in the past on my PC) and it did not alter the frequency (10-30 mins) of the issue. No issues in 2 days after reverting the kernel.

seth · 2025-12-21 22:15:08

Your backtrace shows an old library from mid November being used, please check what mesa version you've installed.
In doubt run a complete update and produce a new backtrace.

seth · 2025-12-22 10:06:28

In case a fully updated system crashes (likely w/ different backtraces), x-ref: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=311181

gps1539 · 2025-12-22 16:55:06

The coredumps started with a fully updated system (mesa and kernel both on the latest). Reverting mesa did not solve the issue, but reverting the kernel did. Sorry I thought that was clear in the 1st post.

seth · 2025-12-22 19:22:33

What do the coredumps look like w/ a non-downgraded mesa?
The version in the backtrace is vastly dated, what makes me worry that you're pinning some older mesa version or are using some AUR package.

gps1539 · 2025-12-24 00:14:25

I updated mesa to 1:25.3.2-1 while holding the kernel back at 6.17.9 and it has run for 24 hours without a coredump.

Below is the coredump before I reverted mesa or the kernel.
Note. Mesa had an update since this coredump, but the coredumps seemed to start after the kernel update.

coredumps seemed to start after the kernel update.

There're probably amdgpu error in dmesg/the system journal - something about timeout, reset and wedge?

I tried updating to 6.18.3, as there looked to be some fixes for amdgpu, but I just hit the issue again. Reverting back to 6.17 for now.

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 8#p2279768 seems to suggest the problem being the firmware - have you tried to downgrade that?

gps1539 · 2026-01-05 23:34:34

I have not tried downgrading linux-firmware. I update every few days and I did not see issues between updating linux-firmware in early December and updating the kernel to 6.18 in mid December.

seth · 2026-01-06 10:27:35

The newer kernel might attempt to load a newer version of the firmware - withdrawing that would make it drop back to the older version.
Idk whether that's the cause, but it's not an implausible scenario.

Issue still occurs on 6.18.4

A CachyOS user reported a similar issue and they seem to believe kernel 6.18 is looking for newer amd firmware than provided in linux-firmware 20251125-2. Looks like a new linux-firmware commit happened on 20260110, I'll see what happens when I update to that.

Did a complete pacman update this morning on my laptop and it broke gdm. I spent hours trying to figure out what was going on and got nowhere. The last full update was in August sometime.
I used the llms and was not able to figure out what happened. The end result was I went to lightdm as my greeter. I will try another time to see where it goes.
I am running wayland. the config line is commented out
#WaylandEnable=false

[2026-01-11T11:14:09-0600] [ALPM] upgraded gdm (48.0-2 -> 49.2-1)
This is what I get:

I do note that whenever I try to run gdm, I cannot log into a tty, either. I can only access it via ssh.

when I switch to lightdm, everything works fine, I will stay with this for now and try gdm later. FWIW, on my desktop with nvidia drivers or nouveau, gdm works just fine. THis is a laptop with nouveau, only.

As Seth mentioned, this is unlikely to be the same issue as mine is with amdgpu and your laptop appears to use nvidia.

If your laptop has an old nvidia chip check https://archlinux.org/news/nvidia-590-d … el-modules. You may need to use nvidia-580xx-dkms now.

Since your comment that it is probably not the same issue, I posted a new thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=311603 which has the boot log.
