I can’t check on my system at the moment, anyway, I found something interesting searching on the web.
You could try to check if this behaviour is triggered by upower.
There should be a file /etc/UPower/UPower.conf with some parameters to check, like PercentageLow and PercentageCritical for notifications, and PercentageAction to shutdown.
I don’t know if this is the real culprit, because you should have had notifications, but at least if you have PercentageAction=15 that could be something to test.
These are my current (and default) values):

PercentageLow=20
PercentageCritical=5
PercentageAction=2

Your system is not updated since a while.
Enter update in terminal. This will update your system and make available garuda-inxi.

What next ?

This means that you still have to add chaotic-aur in your pacman.conf adding

[chaotic-aur]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/chaotic-mirrorlist

If you want, you can reset the whole pacman configuration with

sudo bash -c ". <(wget -qO- https://gitlab.com/garuda-linux/themes-and-settings/settings/garuda-common-settings/-/snippets/2147440/raw/main/remote-update)"

i did this, it say something 1 gb download and install around 6gb and i Y it
so i assume it take atleast an hour so i plug my pc in charger then update it till then i go walk around so i open bluetooth settings from dock panel above and try to discconect bluetooth then i notice my dock is lagged so i shut down it and try again
and now it say


warning: config file /etc/pacman.conf, line 38: directive 'ParallelDownloads' in section 'options' not recognized.
:: Synchronizing package databases...
error: failed to update core (unable to lock database)
error: failed to update extra (unable to lock database)
error: failed to update community (unable to lock database)
error: failed to update multilib (unable to lock database)
error: failed to update chaotic-aur (unable to lock database)
error: failed to synchronize all databases

Better not to touch anything during such massive updates.
Try first to remove the lock with:
sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
Then clean the cache:
sudo rm /var/cache/pacman/*
To avoid troubles with partial downloads.
Finally relaunch the snippet above.

I wonder how far you could go back and update a system with that script.
I'll do some more improvements to the update script today to try and support even more legacy systems just for fun :stuck_out_tongue:

Also this is why I made this Currently rolling out: Introducing Garuda System Maintenance - #18 by TNE

I've always been a great fan of all your scripts, snippets and various tricks, but if you improve it even more you deserve a nomination for best script/tool/hammer/whatnot of 2022.
So much for any distowatch or similar reviews... :wink:
Edit: ops, changed a wovel that makes the difference :yawning_face:
