Entered hibernate and never responded to mouse or keyboard

[Centurion030]

Okay,

My final asset was upgraded to 24.04. Other than a hickup after nvidia drivers were installed (I had to use nmtui to activate my 1 GB ethernet port) this one went pretty well. All things considered with my laptop's issues that were previous mentioned here.

This was a weird one. I locked the screen and went on a trip. After about an hour and a half away, I came back. I moved the mouse as the screens were black and nothing... Nor, did pressing any keys on the keyboard awake it.

Odd. I held the power button and restarted.

This was basically a fresh install as I had bought a new Toshiba 14TB drive.

Any hints as to why it did this?

Very respectfully,

James

Okay, I think it's resolved. Here are the settings:



And, I also followed the steps from this page to disable Sleep, Supend, and Hibernation Modes:

Once you have your terminal open, you’re to kill everything that has to do with suspend, sleep, or hybrid-sleep. It’s actually pretty easy. Start by opening said terminal, by pressing CTRL + ALT + T and then enter the following commands:

1. First, you mask ‘sleep.target‘:

sudo systemctl mask sleep.target

2. Then mask ‘suspend.target‘:

sudo systemctl mask suspend.target

3. And mask ‘hibernate.target‘:

sudo systemctl mask hibernate.target

4. Finally, mask ‘hybrid-sleep.target‘:

sudo systemctl mask hybrid-sleep.target

To revert these changes ou can unmask them and that’ll enable them again. This can be achieved by changing the ‘mask’ command to ‘unmask’ and running the commands again.

Verify you actions by using the below command

systemctl status sleep.target
