Counter-Strike Global Offensive Hangs and never recovers

[usernameusername]

When I play CSGO on siduction, online, either in casual or in competitive, the game almost always hangs and freezes.


At this point I have to hold the power button. I thought it was an issue with SDDM because I had a hang at the lock screen twice, but I removed SDDM and switched to lightdm with KDE and I am still having hanging and complete system freeze in CSGO.


This is very frustrating.


I tried journalctl but there is just TOO much information in there - even from the last minute there is endless information and I can't find anything about steam or CSGO.



Hardware: Lenovo Legion 510, NVIDIA GTX 1080, newest kernels and newest drivers, been ongoing through numerous updates of both kernel and drivers. I have never had this issue on Arch based distros, Ubuntu, etc (chronic hopper here).


Is there some way to track down why this is happening? Thank you in advance. Vielen dank! Dziekuje! Gracias!

You could provide us with what journalctl knows about this after it freezes. You can pin journalctl to print certain timeframes with

Code Select Expand

journalctl --since "1 hour ago" or you could specify

Code Select Expand

journalctl --since "2021-06-25 20:00:00" --until "2016-08-04 20:55:00" You can also use -r in combination, which instructs the system to display the output in reverse order, so latest is on top.

I know nothing about NVIDIA cards, but someone else might be interested in the exact driver-version you use.

You can see that my system hanged at 1435 sometime. Then I had to hold down the power button to get it to turn off and boot again.

Unfortunately, the output of journalctl does not help, at least not me.

Yeah I agree. Any other ways to figure this one out? I can replicate this bug, so maybe some active monitoring tool with an output?

[devil]

As I am not a gamer at all and know nothing about Nvidia, I am at a loss. Does xorg.log or xsession-errors tell you anything new?
