Check bios, i think there is an option for deep sleep you have to disable

#

It doesn't work for me all the time tho, sometimes my pc restarts anyways

#

However it did help

#

For sure @polar ice ! Any idea why it would happen after an upgrade? It was fine for 2 years?

#

And also why isnt it happening from Windows?

#

No clue tbh, but i assume linux doesn't know how to shut down new amd cpu's properly or make it go to deep sleep

#

Cuz i doubt it is a gpu issue

#

Maybe linux 6.7 will do it properly as it has some amd patch notes

#

But just speculating

#

Hmm interesting

#

Will check release notes and the setting soon

#

Thanks again yo! Ill update here how it goes!

did you install the appropriate drivers for the GPU? and reinstalled the kernel as a safety measure?

#

I'm more inclined to think it's not the UEFI at play here but that linux is not completely aware of all the new changes

#

I installed amdgpu along with mesa for hardware acceleration. The gpu is being used correctly so I dunno what this is

#

And im still confused why Windows can shutdown properly but linux is always restarting. I'll try the Bios setting Werlon mentioned soon, hopefully thats it 🤞

#

is it a BIOS or UEFI?

#

there's a difference, I know if you're old school and still use BIOS for both it's fine but in this case those terms matter

orchid dew Jan 7, 2024, 4:29 PM

#

Its UEFI

#

I assumed BIOS would suck for my dual boot? In terms of extra setup?

open wigeon Jan 7, 2024, 4:30 PM

#

that's one way to trigger my PTSD lol

#

yes that's always been a setup of it's on

#

if your PC is recent, UEFI is more common

Hey folks. I do not have a deep sleep option in BIOS. Also checked wake on LAN and nothing

#

does shutdown or systemctl shutdown do the same thing?

open wigeon Jan 7, 2024, 7:50 PM

#

pale drift does `shutdown` or `systemctl shutdown` do the same thing?

systemctl shutdown is not a real thing

#

systemctl poweroff is that command

pale drift Jan 7, 2024, 7:57 PM

#

oh, didnt know that

orchid dew Jan 7, 2024, 8:46 PM

#

I do not use systemd 😦

open wigeon Jan 7, 2024, 8:59 PM

#

Try it though @orchid dew

orchid dew Jan 7, 2024, 9:11 PM

#

There's no systemctl in my computer since it's a systemd lib

open wigeon Jan 7, 2024, 9:14 PM

#

your tag says arch, my understanding is that it comes with an installation by default

orchid dew Jan 7, 2024, 9:49 PM

#

Ah makes sense yo
