Complete freeze after standby

Hello,

I’m using Manjaro with KDE Plasma. Further information about my configuration and hardware is in my profile. I have a pretty annoying issue: sometimes after waking up from standby (by opening the lid of my laptop) the login screen is completely frozen. Sometimes it shows the login background, sometimes just a black screen. More symptoms are:

  • I can’t move my mouse pointer
  • I can’t switch to a terminal session with Ctrl + Alt + F2/F3/F4
  • When I close the lid again it does not go into standby again, the screen stays on
  • When I press the power button nothing happens

The only thing I found to resolve this is to hold the power button for a few seconds to hard reset the laptop and boot again. I read about people with similar issues but did not really find a solution. Also my problem seems to be a bit different since I can’t even switch to a terminal session.

The issue does not occur every time. I suspect that it has something to do with unplugging an external display. But I failed to find a reliable way to reproduce or mitigate it. I tried unplugging the display when in standby, on login screen and while in use. It does not seem to make a difference.

Since I’m pretty new to Manjaro I don’t really know where to look for error logs for this issue and also I don’t know for what I need to search. All help is appreciated.

Regards
Joshua

I also tried to insert a part of the output of journalctl -b -0 here but if I try to post I just get 502 Bad gateway, it’s probably too much for the forum. You can find the whole information under the link above.

Welcome Joshua.

Check this post on how to provide information about your system:

I think most of it will be helpful in your case.

Thank you for your reply. I used the log helper and ticked almost all boxes. But the resulting file is more then 8k lines and I don’t really know which ones are needed. I don’t think that I should just paste everything in a code block. So instead I used the “send logs to internet” feature.

The error occured on Feb. 11 at about 12:00:00

You’re right. I even thought “something looks wrong” but then I just forgot :smiley:
