Issues with suspend not actually suspending?
Hi all, did/does anyone else experience issues with suspending on Tumbleweed/MicroOS/Kalpa? Normally I can suspend my laptop by using the suspend buttons in Plasma6 or by issuing "systemctl suspend". Now it only works every third or fourth time. I works more reliably if I shut programs like Firefox and Thunderbird, but it still is not bullet-proof 100% working. It shows the look screen, freezes from some (20) seconds and then the login screen is shown again and the mouse responds again. I think it might have started Thursday a week ago. Two laptops, one Tumbleweed and one Kalpa immutable, both with Plasma6. Thinkpad T460s and Thinkpad T14 G2. Both updated almost daily to the latest snapshot. (This started before Plasma 6.1, so that should not be the reason.) Kind Regards, Johannes

That might be an update to kernel 6.9.5. Could you test with 6.9.4 or 6.9.6? One is in history [1], one in Kernel:stable [2].

I have rebooted and used 6.9.4 now, let's see if this makes any difference. If not, I'll check 6.9.6. I'll report back later, need to suspend some times... :-) $ rpm -qa|grep kernel-default kernel-default-6.9.5-1.1.x86_64 kernel-default-6.9.4-1.1.x86_64 $ Kind Regards, Johannes
OP: Are you using nvidia drivers? I have had numerous issues with suspend while nvidia drivers were selected by the system, over my choice for nouveau . . . . Nouveau has less suspend issues in my experience, several machines, all with nvidia cards.

If your preference is Nouveau, something has added the NVidia repository on your back. There is a package that does that addition which you have to remove. Which one, I don't remember, but hopefully someone will remember with those hints. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)

@Carlos: Yes, there is . . . but, not sure if this relates to the OP's problem or not, but in my case it was something like "G06 xxxxxx" that "blacklisted" nouveau and reset the video to nvidia, without my knowledge . . . . It hit a few of my OpenSUSE systems, and I locked it at G05??? It kept recurring. I have a couple of threads on the Help forum . . . . One of them: https://forums.opensuse.org/t/how-to-unblacklist-nouveau-in-leap-15-6/172170...

Yes, I know. There is an unrelated package that will add the NVidia repository behind your back. You have first to uninstall and block for ever that package. Then you have to remove the NVidia repository, and then the NVidia packages. That is what I remember of the issue. I don't remember the name of that package. [...] Found it.

Nope, Thinkpad T460 with Intel graphics. And the T14 I think also uses Intel graphics. Kind Regards, Johannes

I rebooted and started with 6.9.4: Linux baghira 6.9.4-1-default #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Jun 12 10:44:05 UTC 2024 (ad8659c) x86_64 GNU/Linux The first attempt was not successfull, I needed several tries from within Plasma6 to suspend the laptop. I just rebooted and after login in fresh, just starting the autostart applications, the suspend was working immediately. But I am going to test with 6.9.6 next. Not sure if this has to do with me using U2F devices for unlocking the plasma lock screen, but also without the device present it does not reliably suspend. Is there any special place where I could look for logs? On a short glance I found nothing in the journal, but there is a lot going on, I might have missed it... Kind Regards, Johannes

I would start with dmesg around "Suspending": dmesg | grep -C 30 Suspending regards, -- js suse labs

Now running with 6.9.6 and I had three successful suspends over the day. Sometimes the Plasma lockscreen is shown before the screen shuts off, sometimes it goes to black directly. But in all three attempts the suspend worked! Hooray! Linux baghira 6.9.6-3.gd344d3a-default #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Jun 25 07:48:26 UTC 2024 (d344d3a) x86_64 GNU/Linux Kind Regards, Johannes
