Since several months or maybe even a year my laptop would suddenly loose the KDE panel and the only way to recover the system would be a hard shut down.
This would happen more and more often.

Now I found a solution, normally I'd have Psensor running but once it is off the computer regains its normal Linux stability.
To be sure and because I hardly ever looked at it anyway I uninstalled it.

Changing the SATA port and changing HDD, and changing the SATA cable itself did not help, so I bought a new
ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II

My OS
Kubuntu 24.04, it is always up to date

Booting up from complete power off is never a problem.
Shutdown is never a problem. It completed the shutdown and the PWR LED goes off.
I never use sleep mode.
If I do a reboot, quite often, it does the Kubuntu shutdown process and when it looks like it is suppose to give a black screen and show the first POST screen, it just stays on a black screen.
Pressing the Reset or PWR button does nothing. Pressing the PWR button for 30 s does nothing.
I have to cut the power from the Power Supply.

Then it boots up just fine.
I am wondering if this is RAM related. My RAM was at DDR4 3200 MHz. Should I reduce it?

BIOS
I have applied the BIOS version
3636
which is from 2026/01/28​

When testing Trash: Emptied the sound plays. But when actually emptying the trash, no sound is played. This is of course, not really a big deal, but I'd like to know why, when a sound is specified, it doesn't play when the trash is being emptied.]]> Desktop Environment Support Snowhog https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forum/currently-supported-releases/kubuntu-24-04-nitpick-noble-lts/desktop-environment-support-ac/692905-no-sound-when-emptying-trash https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forum/currently-supported-releases/kubuntu-24-04-nitpick-noble-lts/software-support-bg/692875-two-warnings-after-system-update Thu, 25 Jun 2026 19:30:26 GMT

Is this something I have to take action?
