KDE won’t hibernate after video ending in Vivaldi Browser

[Mirdarthos]

That is probably just a symptom of what is wrong.It’ll have to be properly diagnosed. To start, please provide the output of:

systemctl status hibernate.target

This will just provide the status of the hibernation target.

and

journalctl --boot=-1 --unit=hibernate.target --no-pager

This will provide any messages that the target provided when activated for the previous (-1) boot. feel free to adjust this to a boot where this problem was observed._

Also, what happens when you run

systemctl hibernate

…from the terminal?

Tip:

When posting terminal output, copy the output and paste it here, wrapped in three (3) backticks, before AND after the pasted text. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:

~~~
pasted text
~~~

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Sed
sollicitudin dolor
eget nisl elit id
condimentum
arcu erat varius
cursus sem quis eros.

Instead of like this:

Sed sollicitudin dolor eget nisl elit id condimentum arcu erat varius cursus sem quis eros.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.

Thereby increasing legibility thus making it easier for those trying to provide assistance.

On this forum here you need to have Trust Level 1 (=TL1) to be able to post screenshots and links in-line.

That’s dumb! Why is that?

Well, that’s because on our old forum we got tons of screenshots of text, links to SPAM, PR0N and other things you don’t want on a forum, so all the new users are prohibited from posting links and pics because of a few bad actors.

Additionally

If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.

Probably just a result of a bad implementation of hardware video encoding/decoding in combination with your graphics driver.

The solution is simple: clear out your RAM by cleanly rebooting. Hibernation should work again afterwards.

Also please note that KDE Plasma has nothing to do with hibernation. KDE Plasma is a desktop environment, not an operating system. Thread moved to the generic Support category.
