Why Won’t My PC Suspend?

Asked By WanderingNomad42 On

I'm having trouble with my HP ZBook G417 (featuring an Nvidia Quadro P5000 GPU) not suspending properly when connected to my HP Thunder Dock 3. While I am able to manually trigger suspension, the system won't automatically suspend after 2 hours as it's supposed to. I suspect the Thunder Dock might be the culprit since I've encountered similar issues on Windows, although I can't recall how I resolved it back then. I'm running Linux Cinnamon Mint and ideally, I'd like to find a solution without resorting to scripting. Any ideas?

Have you tried disconnecting the dock to see if that resolves the issue? Sometimes, power settings might prevent suspension when connected to a dock or power supply. Also, check if you have any applications running that might inhibit sleep. If neither works, try running `systemd-inhibit` in the terminal and see if anything pops up that could be causing the problem.

It sounds like your system is set to suspend, but maybe there's a specific setting in your Linux distro that’s preventing it from doing so. Could you clarify what version of Mint you're using? That would help narrow down potential fixes!
