From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For quite some time now, KDE has intermittently been unable to go to sleep. It will either go to a black screen with the cursor still showing, and the computer running, or it will show a half frozen sddm looking screen with the computer still running. The computer, in both cases, will be wholly unresponsive, and the only way to get out of it is to forcefully shutdown the PC by, for example, holding the power button.

Has anyone else been having this issue?

  • OS: Arch Linux (kernel v6.4.1-arch2-1)
  • DE: KDE Plasma v5.27.6, Wayland
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-4690k
  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX-6600

Using Nvidia with closed source drivers by chance? I had a similar issue and had to disable the services related to nvidia suspend/hibernate/resume:

systemctl disable nvidia-suspend nvidia-hibernate nvidia-resume

This is all I can think of, some hardware specs might help others with assisting you.

No, I have an AMD GPU.

Noted! I'll update the post.
