From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hey y'all! Recently my homeserver (an old laptop) has started crashing every night (after weeks of uptime just working), without anything useful in the logs. Any suggestion about what it might be? (Just started logging battery info to test tonight)

Had the same problem. Reason in my case was high ssd temperature (passive case) caused by high load from some jellyfin job.

Looking for overnight jobs might help. He could try disabling them and see if the issue stops, and if it does then re-enable them in a controlled way to determine which one was causing it.
