It seems that if I close it for only a while and open it, it works fine. But if I have left it closed for a while when I open it I cannot log back in, I can click the cancel button so it hasn’t frozen it seems, but the text box to enter my password is greyed out.
When I installed I opted for a swap file, but I have not done anyhting with it, I’m not sure if that is important.
Thanks
can you show:
cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/default/grub
may remove your uuids if you do not want to show them …

swapfile and resume (hibernate and suspend):
if you do not setup to have resume function enabled you will need to do so, it will only automatic setup on installs using swap-partition and choosen with hibernate, if you are using swapfile you need to setup by yourself:
get the uuid of your root device:
sudo findmnt -no UUID -T /swapfile
get the swap_file_offset
(the point where it starts and ends)
sudo filefrag -v /swapfile | awk '{ if($1=="0:"){print substr($4, 1, length($4)-2)} }'
edit /etc/default/grub
and add needed dconfig to it:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet loglevel=3 nowatchdog resume=UUID=0001 resume_offset=0002
where you need to replace 0001 with the UUID of your root device and 0002 with the swap_file_offset.
then enable the resume hook inside /etc/mkinitcpio.conf:
HOOKS="base systemd autodetect modconf block keyboard keymap filesystems fsck"
adding resume before fsck that this line looks similar to this:
HOOKS="base systemd autodetect modconf block keyboard keymap filesystems resume fsck"
(do not change anything else than adding resume!)
now rebuild kernel images and grub.cfg:
sudo mkinitcpio -P
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

And I just copy this into a terminal?
Ok my grub file now has this instead.

Sorry @joekamprad I somehow missed your second post!
I am running the command to rebuild the kernel image now and I got some warnings.

I am still unable to hibernate sorry
Power Manager:
GDBus.error:org.freedesktop.login1.SleepVerbNotSupported: Not enough swap space for hibernation
make it bigger:
sudo swapoff /swapfile
sudo rm -f /swapfile
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=8000 status=progress
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
where count=8000 is the new size in MB
Ok @joekamprad the swap is now 8gb but I get the same error
Power Manager:
GDBus.error:org.freedesktop.login1.SleepVerbNotSupported: Not enough swap space for hibernation
I only have 4gb of ram.
sudo filefrag -v /swapfile | eos-sendlog

offset could be set wrong or the service is not able to get the size for the swapfile, both solvable…
But it can be also settings inside Firmware (fka Bios)
resume_offset=3796992
is your resume_offset then, seems we do take the wrong number before…
inside /etc/default/grub… needs regen grub.cfg again after changing it sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Hmm very strange, same error message even now.
