  • They put stickers on things that are asbestos/contain asbestos so that you don’t cut them without proper protections. If there is an asbestos moulding or panel just sitting there and has no obvious cracks, wear or crumbling then the odds of you breathing in anything that might attach to your lungs is very slim. If it’s crumbling or visibly degrading then there’s a problem and your university needs to do something about it.

    Asbestos doesn’t disperse harmful particles or offgas anything if it’s sealed (ie like a smooth finished surface) and just sitting there.



  • Next time you see an error on it run ‘journalctl -r’ in a terminal and see if you can spot anything specific wiggling out. Should be a good start to working out where the errors might be stemming from.

    That said there seems to be a few different issues with that machine so its difficult to see how they might be related …maybe a hard disk with bad sectors or trashed ram? You could try reseating the ram module(s) and HDD connections?
