I’m relatively new to Linux but like to think I’m tech-savvy enough to figure out solutions to things - I’ve reached a standstill with this though. I’ll try my best to lay out what I’ve (unsuccessfully) tried based on my days of searching.
Happy to try anything and provide any additional info/logs requested!
Description of Issue
I’ve tried on fresh installs of both Fedora KDE Plasma 41 and 42 - no matter how I put my machine to sleep (terminal, lock screen, menu, or power button), it refuses to suspend/sleep and immediately cycles back on to the lockscreen.
My System
Full AMD machine, dualbooting with Windows 11 24H2 on a single NVME

Attempted:
- I tried the most basic option of turning off Wifi and Bluetooth, disconnecting all USB devices and putting the machine to sleep (via power button pressed = sleep). Did not work.
- As far as I can tell, my Motherboard does not have specific settings to enable/disable wake-on-lan. (Bios manual here for reference)
- Landed on and tried the solution proposed in this thread up to disabling all wake devices: Fedora 41 wakes up immediately after suspend (work around)

Ran below to disabled all enabled devices and tried sleeping - immediately woke up. Ran again to revert back to default.

- More google searching took me to the Power management/Wakeup triggers page on the arch wiki. Specifically section 3.3.2 on Gigabyte motherboards as I have a GIGABYTE B650M AORUS ELITE AX (rev 1.2).

- I tried adding
acpi_osi="!Windows 2015"to the kernel parameters (by hitting e in Grub, and adding that to the linux line). I couldn’t find the specific _osi string for Windows 11 24H2, but I did tryacpi_osi="!Windows 2021"for base Windows 11 as detailed by Microsoft here. Neither worked. I did also (unsuccessfully) try both these acpi_osi options in combination with disabling all wakeup devices, and also just withGPP0disabled.

So yeah, That is what I’ve tried over the past few days. I’m still leaning towards it being something with my motherboard but I’m 100% uncertain. I’m not sure. VERY open to suggestions as I’d love to continue exploring Fedora and Linux in general!
