From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi all, please help me figure out this weird issue I've been having. Any time I leave my laptop idle for a long time, when I come back to it, it's back to the log in screen as in the laptop rebooted.

I am not sure which logs I should be looking for to figure out the source of the problem.

Here's my system info:

Is it possible that you're on a different TTY? The login screen used in Fedora has some problems with using the correct TTY if you don't use auto-login. If this happens again, try cycling through them, maybe your old session is still there.
