Hi! Sometimes, my computer will enter sleep mode, and won’t exit. It seems to get stuck in this sort of limbo, being partially powered on, and partially powered off. All the fans remain running, and power to the peripherals isn’t interrupted (USBs still have power), but the power LED and CPU fan LED goes dark.
I’ve tried to wake the machine while it’s in this state using a mouse, keyboard, and numpad, but have had no luck. To make sure that the mouse was awake, I moved it back and forth for a few minutes straight, with no luck. I’ve also tried using SSH to get in while stuck in this mode, but still, no luck. I don’t think SSH is running while in this mode. The only way I’ve been able to get out of this is by forcefully power cycling the machine.
Fortunately, it does seem like logs are recorded, to a point. Details of the machine entering sleep mode are present, but it seems like there is no activity after a point. Could this indicate that parts of the computer have successfully entered sleep mode?
Also, I have noticed that when LibreOffice is running when the machine is entering sleep mode, the computer is much more likely to get stuck in this state. I’ve been able to consistently replicate this. However, I have not opened LibreOffice in a few days, and still experienced the issue.
Any idea of what to try next?
Thanks for the help!
