Sleep and hibernate not working in HP pavilion dv6

Alif · 12 September 2020 07:18

My hp laptop can’t sleep or hibernate. I used hibernator script – failed.
I’ve installed the oldest kernel — also failed.
It’s running manjaro xfce updated.

Hello,

There are multiple models of HP Pavilion dv6 …
A small arch wiki exists for dv6018 here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HP_Pavilion_dv6018

That doesn’t add the resume to the /etc/mkinitcpio.conf on the HOOKS line, nor does add the resume=UUID to /etc/default/grub on the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line …
Do you have all of those?

Alif · 12 September 2020 08:24

I think I have those

Fabby · 12 September 2020 22:50

Please post the output to:

inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host
grep --ignore-case resume /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

so we can check for you because:

doesn’t sound very reassuring…

Also, when providing code/output, please copy-paste it in-between 3 backticks at the beginning and end of the code/text ``` so that the output looks like this:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.
Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.
Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

instead of like this:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

(as that makes our life much easier so you get helped more quickly and efficiently)

 grep --ignore-case resume /etc/mkinitcpio.conf                  
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block keyboard keymap resume filesystems"

again thanks @Fabby

Fabby · 17 September 2020 07:16

So resume in both mkinitcpio and grub and that’s good.

As I don’t have your hardware, I can’t help you any further except referring you back to the Arch documentation mentioned by Bogdan and the hibernation debugging documentation from the Linux Kernel team:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/power/basic-pm-debugging.html

P.S. If you do find a solution for your hardware, please post about it!

Alif · 17 October 2020 01:09

please help me. how can i do the following things?

Fabby · 17 October 2020 10:30

you don’t: that’s for another OS (OpenSUSE)
Please read this:

(You violated rule#1 of posting screenshots)

type:
```
systemctl suspend
```
If that did something and you did not have to reboot your computer, please do the following:
```
journalctl --system --boot=0 | grep "suspend entry"
journalctl --system --boot=0 | grep "suspend exit"
```
then have a look at the begin and end time and post the output of:
```
journalctl --system --boot=0 --since "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS" --until "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS"
```
where obviously --since is the datetime of suspend entry and --until is the datetime of suspension exit.
If you did have to reboot your computer, use boot=-1 instead of boot=0.

Alif · 17 October 2020 12:41

oops I’m sorry

Alif · 18 October 2020 01:03

step 3 did something but failed to suspend. i did not need to reboot.

journalctl --system --boot=0 | grep "suspend entry"             
journalctl --system --boot=0 | grep "suspend exit"
Oct 18 06:51:46 alnayeef1-hppaviliondv6notebookpc kernel: PM: suspend entry (deep)

Oct 18 06:51:55 alnayeef1-hppaviliondv6notebookpc kernel: PM: suspend exit

and so the next step :

Sorry for the late answer. Been travelling all day.

the multiple > at the end of the line mean you’re missing output on that line. Please maximise the window before copying or redirect to a file before posting the last output…

So:

Update your BIOS.
Try again.

is it possible to update laptop’s BIOS?
“sleep was working on the previous OS”

I have vastly different hardware than you. Please consult your manufacturer’s documentation / web site / Forum.

Then install the previous OS

Alif · 19 October 2020 13:02

I don’t want to install the previous os(W). I’m loving the current os.

Fabby · 19 October 2020 13:23

Please to this then.

HP support is saying that my laptop is more than 10 years old and they don’t give support for older models. So there’s no BIOS update on their website. I don’t want to go back to windoze because I don’t like it that much.
In my other computer; after installing NVIDIA graphics driver, sleep or suspend is working. But my laptop is not with NVIDIA graphics card. So I don’t know what to do.

That’s a completely different problem…

It working on Windows just means that HP programmed around the BIOS bug with a specific Windows driver.

If you cannot update the BIOS as specified by the kernel ¹, your only course of actions are:

don’t use suspend/resume on the old clunker,
find an HP Linux driver for suspend (unlikely)

Note 1: People much smarter than me (I.E. Linus Torvalds) is telling you to upgrade your BIOS, so you should. Ask on the HP community forum if someone still has the old BIOS upgrades and is willing to share them with you if HP does not provide them any more…
Note 2: There is something called TuxOnIce, but as that patches the kernel, it’s potentially dangerous.
As I haven’t used that in the last 5 years or so, you’re on your own so before reading the docs there, make a cold system backup as you might end up with an an bootable system.
