Power button not doing anything when in battery mode

Hi,

unfortunately I have the following problem:

When I press my power button while manjaro is running and in AC powered mode, it works normally (in my case a screen pops up asking what to do now (shutdown, restart, …).

When I press the button running the laptop from battery, nothing happens at all! Also when closing the lid, on reopening, the laptop is frozen or at least I can’t find a way to wake it up again…

The only thing that still works (as far as I know) is pressing the power button for some seconds to shutdown the laptop entirely.

can anyone help on this?

Installed Kernel:
5.16.20-2-MANJARO

I have read an article from the manjaro tutorial section talking about still being able to control some stuff with some “magical” special linux keyboard shortcuts. But I cannot get these to work at all for my laptop (lenovo ideapad).

Here’s the tutorial:

Here’s an overview of the “magical shortcut” stuff:

Have you checked the Power Settings?
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/preferences

Ahoy cap’n,
Is it a Lenovo laptop? When you close the lid, do you have it set to Suspend? Assuming so, Does the laptop suspend & recover correctly if you choose ‘suspend’ directly in the desktop panel?

Kernel 5.16 is EOL, so to get good advice in the forums you’ll probably need to update that. 5.17 should be fine.

It might help others too if you can post the terminal output of:
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --width

Yes I have. Under tab “general” if have set everything to “ask”.
I tried other settings but that did not have any effect. It works fine when the laptop is plugged to AC.

Yes, it’s a Lenovo!
IdeaPad 5 Pro 14ACN6

Yes, exactly, it is set to “suspend”. And yes, if i choose suspend with the desktop gui then it suspends and recovers correctly.

I’ll try to install the newest kernel later, thanks for the hint!
Just have to check out before how to do it :joy:

Thanks a lot for helping so far!

Output of command
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --width
