My laptop doesnt stay asleep

Hi all, my laptop (Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 2023) keeps trying to wake up, resulting in a massive battery drain on my Fedora 43 GNOME distro.

Culprit seems to be the NetworkManager, since running journalctl -b | grep -i "wake" gets me the output below. Any idea how to fix this?

Is Wake-on-LAN enabled in your BIOS? If so, does disabling it help?

I do not have that option in my bios. I now tried to abilitate ErP and to prevent wake-ups from Windows’ device manager. We’ll see.

Still at this stage:

try to disable bluetooth before suspending. It may be also necessary to rmmod the bluetooth driver and insmod after wake.
Search the forum, I think there were reports like this before.

 Kernel: Linux 6.19.9-cachyos1.fc43.x86_64

can you reproduce with a fedora kernel?

6

I can confirm that putting the laptop in airplane mode (ie shutting off bluetooth and network) before sleep did not fix the issue.
I will try with fedora kernel (I use cachy 'cause it was the recommended in Rog for Linux) and I was thinking of trying to remove them from the kernel at sleep.

7

Did you see this?
System wakes immediately after sleep

I did but /sys/bus/i2c/devices/*/power/wakeup tells me that there is no such file and i already set to disable all elements in /proc/acpi/wakeup.

On the other hand, after creating a script to remove the bluetooth module from the kernel at sleep, that is not waking up the laptop anymore. Something else is tho.

Thus I managed to find the devices location: they are not in /sys/bus/, but in /sys/devices/ instead.
