Bazzite, freeze when sleep

Hello,

First of all, I would like to say that I am fairly new to Linux. I was bothered by all the new AI features and the requirement to use a Microsoft account in Windows 11. That’s why I installed Bazzite on my computer.

So far, it’s been working great, and even games on Steam run flawlessly. Apart from that, however, I have a problem when my PC goes into standby mode. Since this happens quite often for me, it’s pretty annoying.

Specifically, the PC doesn’t seem to actually go into standby mode; the screens turn off, as do the mouse and keyboard. However, the fans remain on the entire time and the power LED also stays lit. It is no longer possible to wake up the PC; the mouse comes back when I move or click it, but nothing else happens. The screens remain dark, and nothing happens even when I press the power button on the PC.

The only thing that helps is to press the reset button.

My search has shown me that standby is often a problem, but I haven’t found anything that specifically applies to me.

As I said, I’m completely new to Linux, so I don’t really have a starting point for getting to the bottom of the problem. Can anyone help me?

Im running: Bazzite with KDE for AMD, no Game Mode.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700x
GPU: AMD RX 6700XT
MB: ASUS Prime B550-Plus

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Hi all,

I have the same issue after updating to Bazzite 43.

Hi everone,

I have the same issue. Sometimes switching off the screen helps to get the desktop visible again, but keyboard and mouse are not responding any more. The only way to solve this situation is pressing the power button for 10 seconds to force the computer to switch off.

Probably this: Suspend not working as expected on Gigabyte B450 motherboard · Issue #3237 · ublue-os/bazzite · GitHub & Desktop goes to sleep but actively wakes up after a few seconds of sleeping · Issue #1928 · ublue-os/bazzite · GitHub

Something related to your GPUs PCIe slot I believe. Unfortunately I don’t know a safe solution, as tinkering might’ve made it worse / persist for me and now I don’t know how to proceed further.
