Monitors not waking up after going into sleep mode

For some reason, my monitors do not wake up after going into sleep/hibernate mode. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I use 2 monitors as well if that helps.

Anyone that may be able to help will need a lot more information about your setup.

What have you configured for power saving?

And the power saving settings you are using?

When you say that it does not wake up the monitors what are you doing to wake the system?
How do you know that the rest of the system has woken up?
Did you ssh into it from another system for example?

This problem only occurs when I put my computer to sleep, not rebooting or shutting down. The system has woken up after putting it to sleep, but for some reason my monitors do not wake up for some reason. The only way to get my monitors to start displaying is by rebooting or turning the computer off completely and then turning it back on.

I also do not have another OS or Distro installed, it’s only Fedora.

if possible for comparison
and there is still the previous kernel, you can try booting through it
for example kernel-6.7.10-200

on kernel-6.7.11-200 I also experienced a similar problem regarding sleep and usb detection, the cause of which is currently unknown

with the previous kernel boot everything runs normally

Ah interesting. How long has this problem been going on for you? For me its been around a month.

When reporting problems it is good practice to apply vendor BIOS and Fedora updates so you aren’t chasing a solved problem.

Power management is always problematic with newer kernels because vendors have a variety of mechanisms and give priority to Windows support. Fortunately, large organizations are watching power requirements (my former workplace was designed for 300 watts per user, so plugging in another laptop could trip a breaker and shut down 4 other cubicles). Power management problems with systems aged 0 to 5 years usually to get fixed with BIOS and kernel updates. The new 6.8.4 kernel has helped others with similar problems.

in the last week or so
currently in my case, via kernel update 6.8.4-200.fc39.x86_64 from update repository
this problem can be resolved
