Arch sometimes won't suspend












3















Sometimes the computer won't auto-suspend when the lid has been closed. When this happens re-closing the lid won't make it suspend until next reboot. After the reboot the auto-suspend works again. After a while it stops working again, I haven't been able to determine what changes the state from suspendable to unsuspendable.



In the unsuspendable state "sudo pm-suspend" and "sudo systemctl suspend" don't make it stay suspended.



I'm running a Lenovo X220 with Arch 64 bit.



What should I do/try to make it work as it is supposed to?



EDIT:added journalctl output:



journalctl -xn

Mine would suspend but immediately resume. The fix for me was to disable (d) Wake-on-LAN:



$ sudo ethtool -s eno1 wol d
$ sudo ethtool eno1 | grep Wake-on
Supports Wake-on: pumbg
Wake-on: d
