Hello!
My wireless mouse and keyboard are not working after Zorin goes to sleep. If I do a hard shut down, they will start up again, but I know it is not good to do a hard shut down constantly. What are some possible issues. Both are from Logitech.
Some Questions:
- Are they connected with a Dongle or directly via Bluetooth?
- Are Secure Boot and Fast Boot in BIOS disabled?
- If Windows is still installed: Is Fast Start-Up in windows disabled?
- Does Your System run in Wayland or X11? You can check that with the Terminal Command
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
- Yes, they both have dongles.
- I am pretty sure they still are, but I will double check.
- Windows is no longer installed.
- I will check. I haven't been able to get to my computer today, but I will let you know which one it has.
Thank you for your response!
Wayland.
Then, You could try it with switching to X11/Xorg to see if it behaves better. To do that, go to the Login Screen. Click there on Your Profile so that the Password Field appears. When it is appeared, You should see a Gear Icon in the bottom right Corner. Click on it and choose the Option ''Zorin Desktop on Xorg'' and then log in.
If it keeps happening I will give that a try. What is Wayland/X11 and what are the differences?
Maybe this item will explain Wayland/X11 more. Xorg, X11, Wayland? Linux Display Servers And Protocols Explained
These are Display Protocols. That might not sound very relatable but they can have a big Influences on Stuff. To make it short: Wayland is a newer Standard but depending on the Implementation it can be a not so good Experience. X11/Xorg is an older Standard but more reliable. Switching between both is something what is worth a Try to check how it behaves and if something behaves better or worse.
Great! We haven't had any more issues yet, but if it persists, I will try that. Thanks!
