Fix for PC waking up from sleep by itself

Ok, so … I would like to keep this as short as possible. Lost hours and too much mental energy to find a fix for this issue.

I have an AMD build: X670 (TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI) + Ryzen 9700X + RX9070XT.

Fedora KDE is recently upgraded from 43 to 44, but I made a fresh install today, just to make sure it’s not related to upgrade. The problem appears on this system on all installed OSes: Fedora KDE, Kinoite, openSuse Tumbleweed (and Solus in the past).

The problem is that the pc enters sleep, but it does not stay there: it wakes up in like 29 seconds to 1 min. Then the PC will stay awake with displays on. Checked multiple time the bios, everything should be fine from that perspective.

Current config:

The solution(s) proposed by chatgpt is this:

Option A — udev rule (clean and standard on Fedora)
sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/90-disable-amd-usb-wakeup.rules

Add:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pci", KERNEL=="0000:14:00.3", ATTR{power/wakeup}="disabled"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pci", KERNEL=="0000:14:00.4", ATTR{power/wakeup}="disabled"

Apply:

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
sudo udevadm trigger

Option B — systemd-tmpfiles (often better on Kinoite)
sudo nano /etc/tmpfiles.d/amd-usb-wakeup.conf

Then:

w /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:14:00.3/power/wakeup - - - - disabled
w /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:14:00.4/power/wakeup - - - - disabled

:check_mark: Very clean on immutable systems
:check_mark: Applied at boot automatically
:check_mark: Often preferred on Kinoite

Went for Option A for Fedora KDE and it works. Will try option B tomorrow for Kinoite and also check if A works for TW.

Maybe will be useful for someone!

Thanks!

Option A doesn’t touch anything that’s not writeable on Atomic Desktops, so it should work equally well on Kinoite. Maybe give it a try when you look at Kinoite tomorrow?

Thanks, that helps. Will try!
