I have a system that has decided it wants to do spontaneous shutdowns.
At first I had seen it was shutting down while I was booting it up
(can't tell at which point it failed then, since it's on a KVM and I had
it switched to the other machine while it booted). Afterwards I was
able to get it to boot all the way into the Mate desktop, and used it
for about 10 minutes one time, about 30 min the next. One time I
actually got a popup asking whether I wanted to do a reboot, suspend, or
shutdown, but it then just shut off before I could even respond.
Afterwards it just shuts down without any warning.
I'd like to set up some sort of monitoring/logging on it to see if I
could catch what fails, since I couldn't see anything obvious in the
logs in /var/log.
I'd think it might be a temperature failure, so I expect I'd need to run
some thermal monitoring.
