Image problems

Hello. I started to notice something like this in garuda. I install Yandex browser, then Google Chrome, then Microsoft Edge, all these browsers on Chrome. And when I launch them, I install one or another and start surfing, then the image on the monitor disappears, the monitor seems to restart, even the button on it turns off and on again. I print with firedragon now and everything is fine.

The question seems to be resolved. Probem is not in browsers and not in Garuda Linux. The problem is that my RAM is not chasing. Memtest pointed to many errors during acceleration and 0 without overclocking.

Does it happen also if you login to an x11 session?

This means a reboot is pending after the latest update. Just fyi… Not necessarily causing troubles of course.

Yes, this happens on x11 too, but without sound like in wayland. The sound is like this on wayland, when you restart the monitor image, let’s call it that, as if you connect or disconnect some device. On x11, the image goes out and appears without any sounds. Then I had an idea that it was not the monitor’s power supply, not hdmi.
And garuda switched to pipewire. I wanted to listen to music through firedragon vkontakte, but the music does not play. On another site, the music works in the browser. I read that in mozzila vkontakte, the sound should work on pulseaudio. In yandex browser, the music worked everywhere, but it is not possible to sit yet. I thought the monitor was already dying, it is already 10 years old, and these are browsers.

I have had this problem for six months on Linux.
