Fedora 35 gnome workstation freezes sometimes after boot login with a grey screen. Then I have to shut down the laptop using the power button. I updated the system multiple times but the issue is not solved. Is anybody having similar issues? Is there any solution? I am using dell g5 se with amd CPU and GPU smartshift.
Can you provide us more information like hardware info and if you can then provide inxi -Fxz in </>
So we can look into the issue you have.
I had something similar, but updating kernel fixed it.

Hi, look like your system already have latest kernel version installed. If the problem still comes, may be you want to read this post.
If it happen only on certain actions like shared link above, on Fedora Workstation you can use:
# Add kernel parameter
sudo grubby --args="amdgpu.dpm=0" --update-kernel=ALL
then reboot.
To remove above parameter if nothing change:
# Remove parameter
sudo grubby --remove-args="amdgpu.dpm=0" --update-kernel=ALL
I tried this. My laptop was getting stuck in shutting down and booting. So I removed the parameter.
