[SOLVED] Suspend is not working

[rektal]

Hi,
Sparky Linux is awesome and runs very smooth. I am going to switch to it from Tumbleweed.

But I have got a problem with suspend.
Suspend is not working and I hear my fans is still running.
This is my BIOS setup: BIOS into "Power Management Setup" is set to "ACPI Suspend Type" to "S3 (STR)".


On my desktop computer I have got another linux distro openSUSE Tumbleweed and suspend is working on it.
I was using a Debian based MX Linux distro and suspend was working on it.Sparky Linus is Debian based distro too but suspend is not working on it. Why?

Not a real fan of your username. 

Clean install?

Posting inxi -br would let us see if you are in Stable or Semi-Rolling (5 vs 6)   and your DE

[rektal]

I have got a Semi-Rlling realise Sparky 6 Po-Tolo with KDE.

This is a clean install.

inxi -br is not working in terminal. There is an info:

Code Select Expand

bash: inxi: command not found

Hibernate is not working too.

[rektal]

My username is an anagram of my surname in Polish.

This is rektal  and this is not a rectum. I know that in English it is not a good association.

[MoroS]

Depending on your install inxi might need to be installed first:

Code Select Expand

apt install inxi

What you can also check is what happens when you try to trigger suspend from the terminal:

Code Select Expand

systemctl suspend (might need root privileges).

You might also check the output of the dmesg command for any errors, warnings, etc.

[rektal]

Thank you.
inxi -br gives me this

 I did systemctl suspend in terminal but nothing has changed.
I hear my fans are still running.

I did systemctl suspend in terminal but nothing has changed.
I hear my fans are still running.

Did they stop for at least a moment? Or did it just ignore the command and keep running? Or maybe screen went off, but only the fans keep running?

[rektal]

Screen went off, but only the fans keep running.

About dmesg output. There is a bolded font and red font. What does it mean? Warning? Errors?

[rektal]

These are all errors or warnings in dmesg. Fonts are white bolded or red.

[MoroS]

The logs won't probably be too helpful here... Unless it's a nVidia-based issue. Did you at any point of this installation have the nVidia proprietary drivers installled? Nouveau tries to load firmware for the wrong card for some reason (nv84 does not support GF 9600 GT - that's nv94). You might want to check the following directories and files for anything regarding blacklisting, nouveau or nv94:

• /etc/modules
• /etc/modprobe.d/*
• /etc/modules-load.d/*
• /etc/nvidia/* - if it exists

Could you also post the output of:

Code Select Expand

dmesg | grep nouveau

so we can confirm, that indeed there is no firmware loaded properly.

Faulty firmware might be the issue here, so maybe let's try to fix that first.

You might also check if the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file exists or if you have anything in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory. Don't do anything with it yet, though.

It was clean install. I did not install nVidia proprietary drivers.

• /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. I do not have this file.
• In the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory I have 00-keyboard.conf file.

• etc/modules - I do not have this directory
• /etc/modprobe.d/*  - There are files: amd64-microcode-blacklist.conf, dkms.conf, droidcam.conf, etc-modules-parameter.conf and intel-microcode-blacklist.conf.
• /etc/modules-load.d/*- There are files: cups-filter.conf, droidcam.conf and modules.conf

I've managed to locate the firmware needed for Nouveau to function: https://al1.seblu.net/seblu/x86_64/nouveau-fw-325.15-1-any.pkg.tar.xz

You'll need to extract the contents to the main dir ("/"):

Code Select Expand

sudo tar --wildcards -C / -xv ./nouveau-fw-325.15-1-any.pkg.tar.xz usr/lib/firmware/nouveau/*

This command will:
- extract the contents of the archive (-xv)
- extract only the firmware files ("--wildcards" and "usr/lib/firmware/nouveau/*"), bypassing Arch's package info (it's an Arch-based package)
- extract them to the main directory while preserving the directory structure ("-C /"; putting them in the /usr/lib/firmware/nouveau directory, where they should be).

Then try restarting the system. This should load the firmware files. Check the "sudo dmesg | grep nouveau" command for the output. There shouldn't be any errors. If that's the case try suspending the system and see if this helped.
