Honestly, yes. Whenever my PC goes to sleep, my SSD stops working. I have to unplug it and plug it back in to make it work again.
Journalctl suggests the SATA port doesn't support suspend signals. I suspect my mobo (ASUS TUF Gaming B550M-Plus) doesn't fully support sleep on Linux. Though I've yet to test if it's also an issue on Windows.
Have the wifi version of that mobo. No issues with suspend with either ubuntu or Pop-OS. Using an nvme as primary.
Same, but the issue is with my second drive on SATA.
Had a very similar issue with an Intel NUC running Arch.
I've just given up on all sleep/hibernate stuff on Linux and pretend it doesn't exist and we never invented that and just fully shut down like it's 1995. Half the time it does work, it comes back in a half-ass zombie state anyway with shit broken left and right, needing a full reboot.
Sleep isn't even that useful these days anyways. If you have your OS installed on an SSD or an M.2, you'll start up in about 10 - 15 seconds from fully powered off anyways.
I used to agree with you, then I had to run to a meeting with a non closed laptop. Since my hinge was weak I was holding it like an open book, as to keep it open without closing anything important by touching the screen. The whole office stared at me like I am an alien.
(I know you can change the behavior, but back then I had it on default, which would hibernate on lid closure and never wake up, so I just made a habbit of shutting it down before closing the lid)
If the computer stays on for the whole work day already, why should it go to sleep for the two minutes you’re carrying it somewhere? Just disable sleep on closing the lid.
Yeah let me jump in time to tell my younger self to do that before said event. /s
Obviously I changed it afterwards. But before it was simply a non issue.
And just to clarify it again, even though I said it above already: by default on my OS/DE back then, it would hibernate on lid closure and all work in progress would be lost.
it's nice if you have a bunch of automatically starting programs, though i imagine hibernation is pretty similar in that regard.
I suppose NVME ssds might be more up to that task? I've been running a sata ssd on my machine since installing arch on it lol.
Sleep is for chucking the laptop in a bag and not interrupting your work flow.
I don't even shut my computer down anymore. Just lock it and let the monitors go to sleep. Reboot as necessary for updates. Been doing this since like 2004 without any issues. Currently on Linux Mint.
that is bizarre. My MSI board has been pretty much perfect with sleep, never tried hibernation though.
