Hello all, for a few weeks/months now, my computer has stopped going into suspend mode. Here is what happens when putting it to sleep (using GNOME’s power menu) or using systemctl suspend:
- Display turns off, peripherals turn off (keyboard lights off etc), fans spin up before sleep as usual
- Fans go back to idle speed, computer stays on
- Have to press the keyboard, wake the display up and go in the power menu again to suspend it (from the lock screen), and it works every time like this.
I have no idea what could be preventing suspend and what I could find online did not really help a lot. I don’t think it is a USB device because I tried unplugging most of them except my mouse or my keyboard and it still did not work, and the second time on the lock screen it always suspends like intended
- Distro: Fedora 40
- DE: Gnome 46
- GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1080Ti (Wayland)
- CPU: Intel 10850K
- MB: Gigabyte Z590 Gaming X (everything is up to date)
thx !
Yes. In a typical live USB session, all changes are written to the RAM, so they are lost on the shutdown. Some live USB supports persistent storage, but I think it’s not so common.
That is…disappointing.
