Cannot wake from suspend after latest update!

clauded

What kind of hardware do you have?
Can you reproduce?
Do you have other software installed that could affect sleep (like tlp)?

brent

do you have a swap partiton?

T450s intel graphics

I noticed that TLP failed to load, uninstalled it, rebooted and was able to suspend. That may have been the issue. I'll keep you posted.

Was not working with both linux-current and linux-lts

4GB swap partition

Switched back to linux-current without TLP installed and it worked. Never once worked with linux-current before. Perhaps it was a TLP issue.

benjamindaines hopefully things will stay consistent with the lts. reboots solve so many problems i always undestimate them

Latest update brought some issues here too.
My user password fails after i type it and press enter, the workaround i've found is to type-in the password then click the reveal button to fully display the password then press enter and i can log into my session.

does that on boot, on resume from sleep etc. i mean everytime i have to enter my session from the logon screen.
but it doesn't do that when inside the session and have to enter my password for installing an app or do a superuser task, so only logon screen connection is affected.

Hope this will get solved by next update.
Nice week to everyone and great success too!

Got a similar problem after last update on my MacBookAir 2010; Screen does not wake up though macbook does.
A downgrade to the lts kernel did surprisingly not change anything
I am using nouveau drivers.

Any ideas how I can get close to the source of that problem?
at the moment, I am trying a rollback to last years last update...

LordMyschkin You're using the Stable/Shannon repository, and not Unstable, right? Just checking because there was an issue with Mesa on Unstable recently.

LordMyschkin

Staudey Yes, shannon (at least it says so when i run eopkg list-repos)
should I change that - just to try?

Similar issues on an 11 HP Pavilion 17-e118dx with AMD A8 and Radeon 7640 graphics. Machine will wake from sleep, but is unusable. Screen tearing, just looks like rainbow lines. Can only hard restart to resolve.
Switching the power settings from Sleep to Screen Off works. Opening the lid will wake the screen and I'm able to log in. Not a huge deal, but would be nice to find a solution.

Plasma - Shannon - linux-current - swap
500GB SSD - 8GB RAM
AMD A8 - Radeon 7640 discreet class

LordMyschkin No, I wouldn't recommend switching to Unstable to debug an issue like that. You will receive the same updates after ₁ week anyway, and Unstable can be, well, unstable ^^

LordMyschkin

i have no idea what happend - even the rollback did not resolve the issue, so it must be something I did to the system.
May it be related with my copying the contents from /boot into /dev/sda1 to fix a problem with a to small EFI-Partition I had a week ago?
I'd really love not to have to reinstall my system - though that seems to be the next step...

LordMyschkin Boot Rescue and Repair, detailed at the Main Site link above, is not too difficult.
My response has nothing to do with this Suspend problem thread; I am just saying that will fix the boot partition. It has for me. Don't think it will resize it though
While you are in live is I'd resize /boot to 512MB---I don't think you have anything to lose. Opinions will vary... I can't remember if you did. You can switch to LTS all you want but you have to clean up your kernel debris and make the /boot the correct size....then I think you will be in good shape to get your system back.
NOTE: I've followed your problems across a couple threads so if you have taken these proactive steps then please disreagard my advice

LordMyschkin

brent, thank you for your advice, I already did, and my booting does work flawlessly with three kernels installed right now. No error shown even after resume from suspend, just the backlight not firing up again. A mystery....

brent

LordMyschkin happy you got your solus back! linux is full of those mysteries..

LordMyschkin

brent No, I mean, i do not get any error message and kernels play nicely - but the problem with backlight noch firing up ist still persistent. But a fresh install every now and then keeps the mind from thinking about other first world problems...

brent

LordMyschkin but the problem with backlight noch firing up ist still persistent

I hope someone steps up to tell you how they solved that. I dont have a laptop but I have seen that problem in threads before but remedies were all over the map (conf file edits, third party apps, settings hiding in plain sight , etc etc).
Very much worth a forum search when you get a half hour to spare.

DasJott

Same here for Hibernate. Made a different thread here...

No changes except the update. Dark screen and keyboard lights and nothing else.
Hard reset neeed.

LordMyschkin

Well, I do think i finally found the cure: I had kernel started with "nomodeset" to improve graphics with my old nvidia 320M on my MacBook air3,1 - wich indeed helped with the blurred line running down my desktop.
i really have no Idea of this was a rather new idea or if I did that long time ago - just forgot about it.
Long story short: after removing "nomodeset" from /etc/kernel/cmdline.d/, my problem went away....
