Advice needed. PC not waking from sleep with OpenSUSE TW
I've been having issues with my PC not waking from sleep, the fan keeps spinning, but the screen stays black, and it won't respond. I could just keep it on all the time, but it uses a lot of electricity, so I prefer not to.
So far I've tried:
- Using Wayland / X11
- Secure boot off/on
- Installing the latest BIOS update
- Waking with keyboard presses, mouse movement, power button
Some more information:
- Sleeps works fine on Windows.
- I'm using an AMD CPU & GPU
- I'm using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, and I'm fully up-to-date (version 20240919).
- I'm using kernel 6.10.9-1-default (64-bit)
- I have a swap partition with the same size as my memory
did you try switching to text mode tty console using Ctrl-Alt-F3 or -F4 or -F1 or so? if that works, maybe switching back helps. if switching back doesn't help, you can at least investigate the logs/journals with text mode.
Yeah, I'd certainly try to see if it's a graphical issue or actually locking up.
You can also try toggling num/caps/scroll lock to see if the keyboard LEDs respond. That's a core kernel function, so if even that isn't working, it's really locked up. (Or just really slow to respond.)
Do you have a swap partition? If not try disabling hibernation.
Yes, I do have a swap partition with the same size as my RAM
I've been having similar issues for a while on OpenSUSE.
I noticed that if I press the power button it works, but if I try the keyboard, the issue happens
I can't wake it with the power button either. Do you mean that it freezes after using the keyboard?
Yes, that's what I meant.
Sorry I can't help you more
Had that happen yesterday for the first time with a similar (AMD CPU and GPU) setup.
Have you been able to find a fix?
Didn't happen again so far, so I didn't investigate further. The qcode display on my mainboard displayed an error code I think.
