I have a major problem that have appeared after some update. I cannot exactly say which one, but maybe after plasma 6.3, but it could also be another one.
The system cannot recover from sleep after a lid close. The screen is blank and stays blank after I open the lid, no matter what I do. The only solution is to force stop by pressing 15 seconds the power button.
This makes the system quite unusable. Everything just worked right before some update.
My system is Dell XPS 13 7390, kernel 6.13.2-arch1-1 and Wayland KDE Plasma.
Does anyone else have this problem and what could be the solution? I do not even know where to look for the error log.
@smoltron ,
In a fresh Mercury test system leaving everything in default except for
/etc/systemd/logind.conf
where the only uncommented line is
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend
kernel is Linux 6.12.13-1-lts but idk whether it matters.
It works. For me ‘journalctl -f’ was informative. For you after rebooting perhaps
journalctl -b 0
Thank you! This might be the solution. Will test a couple of times.
How did you come to this solution? It does not ring bells at first.
I reinstalled with Kernel: Linux 6.13.2-arch1-1
and w/o uncommenting any lines in logind.conf it also works on an Ideapad.
I’m not sure if this is a solution.
No, this is not a solution. Without AC my Dell is still stuck/dead after sleep. I will check the logs and see if I there is anything meaningful.
The only errors I found from journalctl were tailscale errors (lots of them!) and then this:
helmi 15 14:43:52 maximus kscreenlocker_greet[3993]: qt.qpa.wayland: Could not create EGL surface (EGL error 0x3000)
helmi 15 14:43:52 maximus kscreenlocker_greet[3993]: Failed to write to the pipe: Bad file descriptor.
This is really a show stopper. I cannot live with a computer that gets stuck in normal operation. I have no idea why this happens and what to do to correct. Maybe the error above is the cause or maybe not.
I don’t know what causes it but every time I install EndeavourOS on a laptop (I use thinkpads) it won’t come out of sleep initially. I get a black screen, sometimes can see a stuck cursor, and have to do a hard reset (or REISUB) to reboot.
Oddly, it seems to fix itself after several days of using the computer and then starts working correctly.
I’ve seen other posts about this issue but they all seem to blame NVIDIA which I’m not using on any of my 10 thinkpads. I use AMD mostly, but it does the same thing on my Intel thinkpads.
This happens every time on a fresh install for me on every thinkpad regardless of configurations (none with NVIDIA) so there is something causing this in EOS. This does not happen when I use Fedora or any other distro.
I have also Intel, so NVidia cannot be blamed. I installed Linux Mint and everything is fine now.
