Unexpected crash after logging in

Hello.

I have experienced unexpected crash after logging in.
Basically, computer froze and wouldn't open anything.

I used Ctrl+Alt+F4 to reboot the machine but it stuck again during the boot splash screen for more then 10 minutes at which point I held Power button to power off the device.

After that, no issues were encountered.

Feel free to ignore errors until 16:01:00 since I think those are unrelated and I plan on creating different post if I don't manage to solve those.

If anything else is needed I comment below and I will try to provide it.

Certain Intel wifi chipsets are a bit buggy, and this can cause complete freezes.

The main workarounds are try different kernels (e.g. linux-lts) and see if one works more reliably, and to try and avoid multiple disconnect-reconnect cycles.

As @jonathon already mentioned the first thing to do is to test different kernels such as linux, linux-mainline, and others.

As there have been issues with virtualization recently on some people's systems I would suggest disabling virtual box. While your vbox errors are of no major significance, virtual box has been known to cause some major issues in the past. Disable it temporarily as a test to see if things improve.

Also, be sure to check if your bios is up to date.

Good luck with your issue and welcome to the Garuda forum.

I will be trying different kernels and will switch from virtualbox to kvm.
My BIOS is already up-to-date.

Guess I will leave this opened in case I encounter the same issue.
