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

    Had that happen yesterday for the first time with a similar (AMD CPU and GPU) setup.

        Okay, it now seems to happen more frequently.

        Man, I had so many issues related to standby and VRR seemingly caused by the amdgpu driver most of the time that I’ll definitely reevaluate whether an AMD GPU is the correct choice for Linux in the future.

        Didn’t happen again so far, so I didn’t investigate further. The qcode display on my mainboard displayed an error code I think.
