I just had another freeze but unlike in the past I was still in the desktop and did not go into the terminal view. I was able to switch to the terminal but I was not able to run any commands like 'cat /var/log/dmesg' or 'dmesg'. I have seen this in the past where all the icons including the icons in the notification area and favorites become blank icons but I have not been able to do anything. I tried to run ubuntu-bug from the terminal but it didn't start and showed io error.
Is there any command I should have run when I run into this scenario? I rebooted into a live usb and ran fsck and badblock. No errors. sudo badblocks -nsv /dev/nvme0n1p7 Checking for bad blocks in non-destructive read-write mode >From block 0 to 97655807 Checking for bad blocks (non-destructive read-write test) Testing with random pattern: done Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found.
