MSI Laptop wakes up immediately after entering sleep mode - Feddit.it
feddit.itSome time ago I posted on Fedora Discussion
[https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/laptop-cant-enter-sleep-mode-after-kernel-update]
because my Fedora system (MSI Summit e16 flip running Fedora 38) started having
problems with sleep mode after a kernel update (actually, starting from kernel
6.3.x and with all later versions). Unfortunately I didn’t receive that many
replies there, so I tried to troubleshoot by myself and I found out that what’s
causing this problem is probably an internal device of the laptop that is
supposed to be used to wake up the laptop from sleep (like the touchpad or the
fingerprint reader? idk) and that instead is misfunctioning and waking it up
immediately after it reached the sleep state. I’m saying so because I tried to
temporarily disable all the lines in /proc/acpi/wakeup using this simple script
below that I found somewhere online and, after doing that until the next time I
reboot, the laptop stays asleep as expected. So now my question is: how do I
isolate which device is causing the problem? And how can I permanently fix this
issue? I suspect that the problematic device could be the fingerprint reader
since it was unsupported up until Fedora 38 and doesn’t still work properly
since it keeps forgetting the fingerprints I add… is there a way for me to
disable it completely and try to see if it fixes the issue? (I’m not sure about
if this is the proper place to ask questions like this, or if I should report
this issue somewhere else, since it seems more a kernel issue. Recommendations
about better place to ask it are welcomed 🙃)
