The message itself is from ddcutil. Hopefully that helps a bit. There is a way to disable ddcutil if you need a shortterm workaround.
Set this environment variable: POWERDEVIL_NO_DDCUTIL=1
>Shouldn't it fail gracefully without causing the entire system to instantly reboot?
Yes, but there is nothing indicating our code is causing that. It'll most likely be the kernel.
It could be both ddcutil and something else react to the same event, or ddcutil is triggering a kernel bug.
If you do still believe it's us, add
QT_LOGGING_RULES=org.kde.powerdevil.debug=true to your env before powerdevil and that will enable more logs.

SUMMARY Ever since buying a new monitor, I have had the problem that occasionally the system will instantly reboot itself without warning, usually just when I am reading a webpage, scrolling and clicking etc. In the journalctl logs whenever this happens I always see this at the exact moment of the reboot: > org_kde_powerdevil[1449]: [ 1449] busno=5, All features that should not exist detected. Monitor does not indicate unsupported Is there any more information on what this error means? Is it trying to do something related to power management with this monitor and failing? Shouldn't it fail gracefully without causing the entire system to instantly reboot?
