Zorin not waking up after suspend

General Help
1

Hey, I installed Zorin in Dual Boot mode with Windows and nearly everything currently works as I want.

The one thing I can't get to work is suspension. If I suspend the pc I can't get it to unsuspend again. Asus motherboard posts 36/37/38 codes, syslog is completly empty between the suspend and my force reboot via power loss. Suspend/Hibernate with windows works without problems. Disabled fastboot, didn't make a diffrence

NVIDIA Driver installed is the open 580 one as the non open 580 doesn't work (only getting cli and nvidia-smi says version/driver mismatch even though they are the exact same version)

Anybody an Idea where to look to debug this?

Welcome to the Forum!

Does Your System run in Wayland or X11? You can check that with the Command echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

Is Secure Boot in BIOS disabled, too? And is Fast Start-Up in Windows disabled?

Does this happen when You go manually in Suspend or is it set up for automatic Suspend?

3

The System is currently running on x11. Secure boot is currently enabled for Win 11, will disable it and test again and update here. Automatic suspend is disabled, so its on manually suspend

4

Okay, so disabled secure boot and after that tested suspend and hibernate (which I couldn't test before due to secure boot).

Suspend still doesn't work but Hibernate works.
But that works for me for now, just have to debug why the button for hibernate doesn't appear after installing it. I can disable the other ones in the extension settings but enabling hibernate doesn't make the option appear

5

So, the Gnome extension doesn't work? Did You take a Look at the Github Page for this:

Yes, the file exists and has the entry from the github page. Extension is loaded as you can see and suspend deactivated and hibernate activated. Suspend is missing from the right context menu (still exists in the start menu) but hibernate is not showing in any of those 2

For those finding it later the polkit policy in the main github page is too old and doesn't work anymore. You have to use this one: Extension not working in Ubuntu 19.10 · Issue #41 · arelange/gnome-shell-extension-hibernate-status · GitHub


Place the following into e.g. /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/00-local-enable-hibernate.rules

// Enable hibernate globally (overrides vendor deny)
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate" ||
         action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate" ||
         action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.handle-hibernate-key" ||
         action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-ignore-inhibit"||
         action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-multiple-sessions") {
            return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

After that reboot or disable and enable the gnome hibernate extension and it shows up

Good that it works now. I marked Your Post as Solution.
