Hi, guys, I am experiencing random logouts on my system. No apparent links to any one program or sequence of events. In fact the last time it happened there were no windows open yet. I went up for the Activities button and next thing I saw was the login window.
Memory: 15.6GiB Processor: AMD FX-8300 eight-core processor x 8 OS type: 64 bit Graphics: AMD Oland GNOME: Version 3.24.2 Disk: 976GB
Has anyone else experienced this? Also my system is experiencing some choppiness when running 0AD.
Regards, HLH

You say the system is actually rebooting? FWIW, this happened on one of my systems a few years ago. The problem turned out to be a flaky power supply.

Sorry, Not rebooting, logging me out!
Fingers were in motion before mind was in gear! Random logouts not random reboots.

I agree. And if not an old (4+ years) power supply with drying electrolytic caps, then the problem could very possibly be accumulated dust. A thorough cleaning with canned air could be all your system needs.

Does this happen shortly after you've updated software and logged out then in again? I've had this happen frequently but thought it was a KDE problem related to systemd in some way. Essentially that logging out wasn't waiting to kill processes that subsequently died after I logged in, thus logging me out again. Logging in a second time always fixes the problem.

OK, that might be it. I do know that there are currently 286 processes running when I check in a terminal (two are the terminal and the command processes).
The last time was about a minute or two after one of those reboot updates. Lets wait and see.

If that's what's happening then it isn't specific to KDE (I think you said you use Gnome), so would probably be worth reporting to Bugzilla. Let us know if you decide to do that and I'll add my own comments.
