Recently bought a new laptop that comes with an AMD Radeon gpu and installed OpenSuse Tumbleweed on it which I had installed on my previous laptop as well but never had issues with suspending and resuming. However, with the new laptop, I am unable to resume after suspending or closing the lid unless I force it to shut down by holding the power button which is a major inconvenience.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Can you check dmesg and/or journald? What model Laptop is it?
Where do I go to check those? Sorry in advance I’ve never been the most knowledgeable about Linux
Edit: here is the exact laptop https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-yoga-7-16-wuxga-2-in-1-touch-screen-laptop-amd-ryzen-5-7535u-8gb-memory-512gbssd-arctic-grey/6533956.p?skuId=6533956
sudo dmesg | less
and something withjournalctl
(not sure because I don’t use that currently). There should be some other logs you can check in/var/log
too,kern.log
sounds useful (though that might just come from sysklogd).I was able to figure out that it does not suspend at all when I close the lid or click the suspend button on Gnome. Only found this out because when going through YaST Services Manager and manually starting systemctl suspend, the laptop suspends just fine and wakes back up. So I’m starting to think it’s more of a systemd issue? Any inputs?
