Lately, when booting up my linux machine (Fedora 39 KDE), everything looks good until about 30s after I log in. Then both screens go black with no output, and shortly after that they light up as if there is a signal but I don’t seen anything.

I’ve tried accessing a TTY but nothing changes on the displays. The only solution I can find is pressing the reset button on the PC, and then I have no problem on the following boot. I’m not really too sure where to start looking regarding solutions. Would really appreciate any input you guys have to solving this problem.

    I updated kernel just now and maybe that will fix it. If not, then I will try reading the logs. Any ideas as to what to look for? I looked briefly through journalctl and I wasn’t really too sure what to keep an eye out for. I know red is bad, but everything in red that I looked for didn’t seem related (mostly networking stuff)

      Just check all the usual suspects: Xorg, syslog, messages, journals for systemd services. Do you have integrated graphics, a card, or both? Trying switching to one over the other and see if you still have an issue.

        I think it may have something to do with the way I have some apps starting up. I’m gonna investigate that further. Thank you for your help

        Hey, I know this has been a while, but hoping you might be able to offer some help with what to do from here. I think this is the offending issue causing the issue (but I don’t know for sure). Just wondering if you have any knowledge to share. If not, I can try to dig into this some more solo no problem. This link has the contents of my journalctl log with any mention of discord: https://pastebin.com/f9XGgiq5 Thanks a lot in advance!

            I originally had the actual package for my distro. The issue is that it updates and then only provides me with the options of downloading a tar.gz or a deb file. I suppose I could just do a remove/install to get the updates, but I was kinda hoping to avoid having to do that
