I have been lately getting random display freezes for about 1-3 seconds where the display just freezes meaning If i am watching a video it just stops(Audio still works though) or when playing a game it completely freeze but the mouse and the keyboard are still responsive though. I have been investigating the issue and noticed a pattern in journalctl that every time this happens the program "/usr/bin/true" is trying to run with sudo privileges and a password is required the message is the following:
"Jan 23 20:27:18 pengu sudo[120707]: peng : a password is required ; TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/home/peng ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/true"
I am aware that this program is meant to be run and never fail and can sometimes could be used for scripts but it looks like it's been scheduled by the OS and just takes over the whole CPU for a second or two maybe that's the issue? I don't really know.
How can I investigate the issue more?!
