OK, I did it.
i didn't wait for the freeze to happen randomly because it may take time, i
tried to open zoom which always causes a freeze, It started only in the
past few days and after a full-upgrade, i use zoom regularly and there was
no problem before the last full-upgrade. its debian testing.
I opened zoom with super key, search for zoom and enter. the computer
freezes immediately.
there was nothing in dmesg or /var/log/messages before the freeze,
this is what was in journalctl and top, i don't know how to tell if there
is something suspicious.
